| Carbon signals | The recorded material palette leans lower-carbon on paper, but procurement and quantity still matter. No dominant drivers yet. | Concrete, Steel, and Glass look like the main embodied-carbon drivers in the current palette. |

| Lower-carbon levers | - Track sourcing, certification, and assembly logic rather than assuming timber is automatically low impact.
| - Look for lower-clinker mixes, reused structure, and scope reductions before fine-grained product swaps.
- Prioritize recycled content, efficient sections, and procurement-specific EPD comparisons.
- 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.
