CL300 Credits that Apply to LEED v4
Building Design and Construction
Energy efficiency and sustainability have become a major consideration in building design and construction. The CL 300 cladding support system is an environmentally responsible product that provides high-performance thermal isolation required for effective continuous insulation design. Basic LEED certification is becoming a requirement for some types of construction in certain jurisdictions. The following pre-requisites and credits apply to LEED v4 Building Design and Construction.
1. Energy and Atmosphere Prerequisite
Minimum Energy Performance
CL 300 System
New Construction
- Core and Shell
- Schools
- Retail
- Data Centers
- Warehouses and Distribution Centers
- Hospitality
- Healthcare
The CL 300 cladding support system has a thermally isolating polyamide clip that provides high-performing thermally broken support across the continuous insulation.
It meets and exceeds ANSI/ASHRAE/IESNA Standard 90.1–2010 since no conductive element, not even metal fasteners, penetrates the insulation layer.


2. Energy and Atmosphere Credit
Optimize Energy Performance
CL 300 System

The credit awards points based on the degree to which the project exceeds performance of the baseline building:
• 1 point for 6%
• 2 points for 8%
• up to 18 points for 50%
The CL 300 cladding support system not only provides the required thermal break across the insulation layer, but actually exceeds ANSI/ASHRAE/IESNA Standard 90.1–2010 by eliminating any conductive fastener penetration of the insulation.
3. Materials and Resources Credit
Building Product Disclosure and Optimization
Sourcing of Raw Materials Option 2 Leadership Extraction Practices (1 point)
CL 300 System

CLADIATOR systems are made largely of aluminum and can contribute to this credit. The aluminum elements have 30.5% post-consumer recycled content and may be valued at 85% of the cost of those elements in calculating the credit.
