| Lower-carbon levers | - Check source geography, fabrication intensity, and whether stone is structural, cladding, or finish-only.
| - Look for lower-clinker mixes, reused structure, and scope reductions before fine-grained product swaps.
- Compare system-level facade options, reduce overspecification, and pair glass choices with structural reductions.
- Use classification and product-level EPD research to place this material more precisely.
- Track sourcing, certification, and assembly logic rather than assuming timber is automatically low impact.
