                      The design will demonstrate innovation in the selection and use of construction materials and
                      products, which minimise the use of materials that deplete natural resources or create toxic
                      pollution in their manufacture. Materials with potential for end of life recycling or that contain or
                      are manufactured with high levels of recycled or waste materials should be encouraged.

                      The following strategies are to be considered for materials selection: -

                      •         Timber products used in the building and construction works are required to be
                                sourced from either or a combination of post-consumer re-used timber; or Forest
                                Stewardship Council (FSC) certified timber.
  Sustainable         •         Total cost of PVC content is to be reduced through replacement with alternative
  Supplier                      materials or ethically manufactured PVC.
                      •         Thermal insulants and refrigerants, where they are used are to avoid the use of ozone-
                                depleting substances in both manufacture and composition.
                      •         All wall, ceiling, carpet and floor finishes, and adhesives and sealants are to be low-

                      •         The development will use materials sourced locally where practical.
