A six-star home at Aurora in Epping North, Victoria, built using Scyon Linea
weatherboard, Matrix cladding and HardiFlex eaves lining.
Though the general populace varies from climate-change sceptics
to we-need-to-do-something-now converts, it’s clear that regulators,
designers, builders and consumers are all increasingly concerned about the
environmental impact of buildings – both in construction and operation.
Companies taking a proactive approach, by using materials and processes
that make smarter environmental sense, are being rewarded for their
ESD commitments.
To help companies achieve sustainable design objectives, James Hardie
has released The Smarter Green Book. The book is a comprehensive guide to
designing greener houses.
