• Under Energy and Atmosphere Vermont Verde Antique could positively impact the energy efficiency of a building with its high thermal mass helping to regulate temperature changes.
  
  
• In the Materials and Resources category Vermont Verde Antique’s quarry generates almost no waste rock; from the largest block to the smallest piece, everything is now used. We are in fact now utilizing some of the older historic “waste” piles in present projects. Another possibility is that as the building’s life cycle is completed the durability of Vermont Verde Antique will allow for its reuse on other projects. 
  
  

• Our quarry and processing plant are ideally located for projects being completed in the Northeast. Our 500 mile local radius covers all of New England and extends to such cities as New York, Philadelphia, Washington, Pittsburgh and Cleveland.
  
  
• In the Innovation and Design category Vermont Verde Antique could contribute to the performance of the building by helping to reduce life cycle costs in such areas as durability, mold resistance and improved air quality.
  
  

We operate both our marble quarry and processing facilities in an environmentally sensitive manner and take pride in our place and commitment to the communities where we live and work.
