Sustainability Partnerships CRRC’s nonprofit status and focus on credible cool surface ratings makes it a strategic partner for government energy programs, building owners, and manufacturers seeking validated labeling and credible data to support heat island mitigation initiatives.

Certification Growth With ongoing standards development and product directories, there are opportunities to offer expanded certification services, rating data licensing, and co-marketing arrangements with manufacturers aiming to showcase CRRC ratings.

Public Sector Access CRRC can target city, state, and federal energy efficiency programs and building code authorities that require objective performance data for cool roofs and walls to drive adoption and compliance.
