Material & Product Resources: Design for Health

About Design for Health

Design for Health, "the digital studio for healthy interiors," is a source for healthy A&D product specification. Created by MindClick, Design for Health rates the environmental health performance of manufacturers and their products to help designers and vendors create healthier environments.

MindClick's Sustainability Assessment Program (MSAP) rates the social and environmental impact of both vendors and individual products in nine categories, allowing designers to compare environmental profiles in order to specify healthier, more responsible products.

The browsable Vendor Library (accessible by creating a free account using your NYSID email address) shows detailed MSAP ratings for different vendors and products, like this example for Valley Forge Fabrics. Dozens of companies are scored based on vendor-submitted information.

The site also includes a Project Library with case studies and ratings of completed interiors projects.
