The International WELL Building Institute (IWBI) recently launched the Works with WELL product licensing program.
Works with Well certification allows manufacturers to demonstrate that their products align with WELL strategies. Enrolled products undergo a third-party evaluation to show that they meet the program’s licensing criteria.
To date, nearly 40 manufacturers have enrolled more than 1,000 products in the program. Later this year, IWBI will unveil a catalog of certified products that can help project teams achieve WELL certification.
Manufacturers have enrolled products that address air and water quality, lighting, smart building technologies, flooring, wall coverings, furnishing, and biophilic products. Nearly 44,000 projects spanning 4.85 billion sf of real estate worldwide have adopted WELL, according to IWBI.
