A green product alone does not make a supplier credible. U.S. buyers in California, Oregon, Washington and Hawaii should expect seven things from a green building materials supplier : a third-party verified Environmental Product Declaration (EPD), compliance with ASTM or AASHTO performance standards, direct manufacturing control, documented batch consistency, reliable ocean-freight and port logistics, a complete submittal package for permitting and bidding, and transparent commercial terms. Any supplier missing one of these seven items is selling a claim, not a material.
