Protecting the Environment – a Key Company Goal

We are consistently trying to improve. Just meeting current industry standards isn’t enough – we’re always trying to exceed them and push our industry to adopt more sustainable practices and better eco-efficiency.

At Caesarstone, minimising our impact on the environment is a top managerial priority, involving all our employees and departments to assure our sustainability leadership.

We aim to create durable, low-maintenance products that support healthier environments and better use of material resources:

Low Maintenance – Our surfaces require minimal maintenance and significantly reduce the need for sealants, cleaning materials and detergents.
High Performance and Durability – Our quartz surfaces are long-lasting and durable, delivering both improved life cycle costs and additional investment value.
Low-emitting Products – Caesarstone quartz surfaces meet stringent product emissions standards and have very little impact on indoor air quality. All Caesarstone quartz products are independently certified by the GREENGUARD Certification, which is part of UL Environment, a business unit of UL (Underwriters Laboratories), as low-emitting surfaces.
Caesarstone works with the leading sustainability organisations in the green building sector as part of its sustainability leadership. Our certifications for our manufacturing sites and products support our customers’ needs for green and healthy building products and contribute to green building projects.

GREENGUARD

All Caesarstone surfaces comply with American GEI (GREENGUARD Environmental Institute) certification which primarily verifies that Caesarstone’s products meet the most stringent indoor air emission standards.
GREENGUARD Gold Standard, evaluates the sensitive nature of school populations combined with the unique building characteristics found in schools, and presents the most rigorous product emissions criteria to date.

GREENGUARD

The GREENGUARD Certification Program is an industry-independent, third-party testing program for low-emitting products and materials. GREENGUARD establishes acceptable indoor air standards for indoor products, environments, and buildings.

Health Product Declaration (HPD)

The Health Product Declaration (HPD)^® Open Standard* necessitates a full disclosure of the potential chemicals of concern in products by comparing product ingredients to a set of priority “hazard” lists based on the GreenScreen for Safer Chemicals and additional lists from other government agencies.

Contribution to LEED

About LEED

Developed by the United States Green Building Council (USGBC), LEED is a green building rating system, which rates buildings of all types (residential, commercial, new and renewed). Based on the number of points achieved, a project then receives one of four LEED rating levels: Certified, Silver, Gold or Platinum. Products (like Caesarstone quartz slabs) can contribute points to a project based on different parameters.
