LEED & Urban Heat Island
Solar reflective paving solutions that reduce urban heat island effect and earn LEED credits.
Designing for LEED & Urban Heat Island?
Product matching, technical data, and certified installer support across Canada.
How it works
Standard dark asphalt absorbs the vast majority of solar radiation, contributing directly to the urban heat island effect — the measurable temperature premium that cities carry over surrounding rural areas. This isn't just a comfort issue: it drives air conditioning energy demand, accelerates pavement degradation, and creates dangerous heat conditions for vulnerable populations during summer weather events. StreetBondSR is HUB's high-Solar Reflectance Index coating system — a reflective paving surface treatment that reduces pavement surface temperatures and contributes to LEED v4 Sustainable Sites credit for heat island reduction. The specification for sustainable development projects, climate action plan implementations, and any site team where green building certification and energy performance outcomes matter.
