Product Sustainability & Efficiency
Products
Our reputation is built on innovative, high-quality building products designed for performance and engineered for durability.
The Impact of Our Products
Every LP® building product starts with fiber sourced through stringent third-party forest certification standards and our rigorously tested product formulas. Our advanced manufacturing processes prioritize safety, quality and sustainability—resulting in long-lasting, carbon-negative products.
Products Engineered for Sustainability
From sourcing to installation, sustainability is at the core of our products. This commitment to sustainable innovation sets LP apart as we work toward Building a Better World™.
Green Building Certifications
Many LP® products support architects and specification writers in earning credits for green building certifications, including the U.S. Green Building Council’s LEED® (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certification and the WELL Building Institute’s WELL Building Standard®.
Seven LP products are certified to National Green Building Standard®, recognizing their contribution to efficient, durable and resilient construction. These products include:
LP® FlameBlock® Fire-Rated Sheathing
LP Legacy® Premium Sub-Flooring
LP® SmartSide® Trim & Siding
LP® SmartSide® ExpertFinish® Trim & Siding
LP® TechShield® Radiant Barrier Sheathing
LP® TopNotch® 350 Durable Sub-Flooring
LP WeatherLogic® Air & Water Barrier
Environmental Product Declarations
We maintain third-party verified environmental product declarations (EDPs) for LP® SmartSide® products, LP® Oriented Strand Board (OSB) products and most LP® Structural Solutions products. These EPDs provide full life cycle transparency into the environmental footprint of our products.
In 2024, these EPD-covered products accounted for over 90% of LP’s North American net sales and confirmed their carbon negativity—meaning they store more carbon over their lifetime than is emitted through sourcing, manufacturing, transportation and end-of-life.
