Green Builder Media Launches 2026 Sustainable Brand Index Survey

Green Builder Media has rolled out an invitation for industry professionals to share their insights for the 2026 Sustainable Brand Index survey. Marking its 12th year, this index has become a pivotal gauge of brand recognition and sustainability within the building sector.

As the housing market faces numerous challenges, including affordability issues, climate concerns, and the push for electrification, this annual survey aims to collect valuable data directly from an array of stakeholders in the construction industry. Among the contributors are builders, architects, designers, and manufacturers who offer their perspectives on brands that provide tangible value in this increasingly complex environment.

Last year’s survey findings reinforced that sustainability has a profound influence on purchasing choices, pushing brands that demonstrate performance and durability to the forefront across various product categories. These categories span from decking and siding to ventilation systems and hot water appliances, highlighting the essential role sustainability plays in modern construction.

"Our survey aims not to spotlight who markets sustainability most aggressively, but rather to identify brands actively showing up on job sites and delivering results in real projects," stated Matt Power, Editor-in-Chief of Green Builder Media. "The Sustainable Brand Index captures the collective wisdom of industry professionals who interact with these products daily, providing an authentic glimpse into what true leadership looks like in high-performance building."

The 2026 survey is designed for efficiency, allowing participants to complete it in just a few minutes. As an incentive, all respondents will be entered into a drawing for a $250 gift card as a token of appreciation for their time and insights.

The results of this survey will resonate throughout Green Builder Media’s editorial content, shaping discussions in its digital, print, and social media platforms. This offers a wealth of information regarding shifting brand perceptions and performance expectations in the residential construction industry.

Industry participants are encouraged to contribute their voices by completing the survey, available until February 6. To join, visit Survey Link.
