Declare.
XICO uses the Living Product Challenge framework to rethink the way our products are made. Instead of trying to be “less bad,” we are creating products that have a positive impact.
Declare is an ingredients label for building products paired with an online database of healthy materials for building project specifications. It allows manufacturers of ecologically sound products to demonstrate market leadership in the growing movement toward product transparency and health in the built environment and provides them an expanded point of entry into the world’s most groundbreaking sustainable building projects.
Why Declare?
Declare is the only label that combines material transparency and the Red List. It distills complex chemical ingredient information into an easy-to-read label. Declare helps you find and specify Red List Free products, which are healthy for people, the environment, and communities.
