new construction.
The JohnsonDiversey DC features a
32-foot ceiling, storage for 47,000 pallet
loads and has 55 loading docks. And the
range of green components at the DC is
nothing less than impressive.
The building is entirely powered by renewal
energy, wind or biomass, making it
the only warehouse of its size in the U.S.
to make this claim. As a result, the DC
will reduce its annual CO2 emissions by
3.2 million pounds. That’s enough energy
to light 230 typical homes for a year.
Fans, not air conditioning, cool the facility.
The roof is white and insulated to
R-27. Various types of equipment cut water
consumption 51%. An energy effi cient
lighting system and a white-painted interior
improve lighting quality and reduce
energy consumption.
“We designed this to be a green facility
from the very start,” explained Stu Carron,
director of global facilities and real estate
at JohnsonDiversey, to DC Velocity in
its December 2007
feature on the facility.
“We just weren’t
going to build a
non-green building.
You can do so much
better when it comes
to energy effi ciency,
water use, and
productivity in the
building when you
build green from
the outset,” added
Carron.
And their efforts
have not gone
unrecognized even
beyond LEED and
various publications.
In addition, the DC
was awarded the
Green Development
Award for 2007 by
the National Association of Industrial and
Offi ce Properties.
Needless to say, JohnsonDiversey is
not alone in its quest. Other companies
working with LEED to certify their
DCs include Patagonia, REI, ProLogis,
Half-Moon Outfitters, and Frito-Lay,
to name just a few. You can even catch
a 6-minute tour of Patagonia’s LEEDcertified
DC on YouTube. Go to www.

Clearly, we are just at the beginning of
green in the supply chain. And getting there
is not an overnight trek. Perhaps Dave Abeloe,
Patagonia’s DC director put it best.
“Green initiatives are part of Patagonia’s
philosophy. Doing the right things in business
that sustain, not deplete, our environment
are at the core of our company.”
In 2000, the U.S. Green Building
Council (USGBC) was formed to
promote sustainable building design
and construction of all types. One of
the non-profi t’s most recognized programs
is LEED – Leadership in Energy
and Environmental Design.
This tool rates the green value of a
building such as a distribution center
or warehouse. “LEED certifi cation
offers third party validation of a
project’s green features and verifi es
that the building is operating exactly
the way it was designed to,” says the
USGBC.
LEED is a point based system that allows
a project to earn points for meeting
various green building criteria.
The six categories are: sustainable
sites, water effi ciency, energy and
atmosphere, materials and resources,
indoor environmental quality and innovation
in design. Points are awarded
and the project receives a fi nal rating:
basic, silver, gold and platinum.
Projects can be new construction as
well as existing structures. Architects,
real estate professionals, facility managers,
engineers, interior designers,
landscape architects, construction
managers, lenders and government
offi cials all use LEED to promote
sustainability.
Since 2000, 167 buildings have been
LEED certifi ed. More than 1,800 are
reportedly in the pipeline.
Although performance standards are
already set, they are not static.
Last year, USGBC’s membership
voted to further increase energy performance
requirements. The result
will be 14% higher energy performance
for new buildings and 7% for
existing buildings.
Similarly, the USGBC has set a lofty
goal to reduce CO2 emissions. All
new commercial LEED projects are
now required to reduce CO2 emissions
50% from previous standards.

Getting to know
“If you’re starting to des ign
or build a new building
project or development
today and you don’t certify
it as green, it will be
functionally obsolete the
day it opens
and ec o -
nomically
for its entire
lifetime.”
