The CIC Green Product Certification Scheme, which currently comprises 28 product categories, is to certify different building and construction materials/products after a thorough environmental impact assessment. The Council continuously encourages industry stakeholders to adopt green products in Hong Kong’s building sector and consults the industry on setting professional and applicable assessment criteria. Applicants may provide suggestions on the assessment criteria to enhance the statutory and green construction materials requirements. The update will be reported to the committee members including the government departments, developers, industry, professionals, product designers and manufacturers. The Council was tasked with conducting a study and has devised the CIC Green Product Certification Pilot Scheme 2.0. 

There are two stages of the Pilot Scheme and each will cover three different product categories. Stage one covers LED lighting, cables & wires and air handling unit (AHU), while product categories of stage two are cooling towers, water pumps and wall covering. Five quotas are set for each product category on a first-come-first-serve basis for each application.  The applicant is allowed to apply once for each product category.

Eligible applicants will have an exemption on the assessment fee so as to motivate the industry professionals to apply to the Pilot Scheme which will be open for application from 1 April till 30 September 2021. Application details including the application form, application guidelines and frequently asked questions are available at the CIC Green Product Certification Scheme’s dedicated webpage.
