Cypress Envirosystems, a subsidiary of Cypress Semiconductor Corp. (Nasdaq:CY), today announced its membership in the U.S. Regenerative Network, a consortium of leading green building product manufacturers and service providers.
Cypress Envirosystems was invited to join the U.S. Regenerative Network by its CEO David Gottfried, who is also the founder of the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC). Together, the Network members offer a comprehensive portfolio of cutting-edge sustainable solutions for building and retrofitting new and existing buildings—Cypress Envirosystems’ solutions help complete the portfolio for retrofitting existing buildings.
U.S. Regenerative Network member companies are dedicated to sustainable development and deployment of innovative green solutions for the commercial building market. “Our objective is to identify and foster leading companies that are bringing the most innovative sustainable solutions to market,” said Gottfried. “Cypress Envirosystems was invited to join the Network because they make retrofitting HVAC controls affordable. They are an example of how innovative companies can radically transform established markets and make it financially compelling for the mass market to adopt green technologies.”
“We are excited to work with David Gottfried and the 25 other companies in the U.S. Regenerative Network,” said Harry Sim, CEO of Cypress Envirosystems. “His idea of bringing together a full portfolio of the best green building solutions will set the standard and stimulate the adoption of new sustainable solutions in the building market.”
Cypress Envirosystems brings to the U.S. Regenerative Network the Wireless Pneumatic Thermostat (WPT), the Wireless Steam Trap Monitor (WSTM) and other solutions used in existing facilities to reduce HVAC and steam energy use.
The U.S. Regenerative Network brings members that offer sustainable solutions together with affiliates that are seeking the best options in the market for greening facilities. Members include Autodesk, Armstrong, Carrier, Scientific Conservation, Sloan, SunPower, and other innovative firms. Affiliates include AECOM, Hines, Google, Walmart, and other progressive designer, construction and real estate portfolio organizations. In addition to facilitating the introduction of advanced technologies to specifiers and buyers, the Network counsels members on measuring and continuously improving their companies to drive market change towards sustainability. “As we continue to grow, the knowledge we gain from the Network will help us to keep developing innovative solutions and ensure that we become a leading company in terms of environmental impact,” said David Roberts, Director of Marketing for Cypress Envirosystems.
The Network will be on display at this week’s Greenbuild conference in Chicago. Member companies will be recognizable by the presence of the U.S. Regenerative Network logo in their booths and their inclusion in the Network passport that will be distributed at the show. David Gottfried will be signing his new memoir, Greening My Life, in members’ booths as well. Cypress Envirosystems will be in booth 2691. They will hold a press conference in room 473 on Tuesday, November 16 at 11am. Also at Greenbuild, on Thursday, November 18, Harry Sim will be speaking on a cleantech panel with David Gottfried at 12:30 p.m. and presenting Teaching Existing Buildings New Tricks at 4 p.m.
