PAIGE STAINLESS HEELGUARD® GreenTag PlatinumHEALTH HealthRATE™ Certification

These certifications relate specifically to product health and material transparency, supporting informed specification decisions in projects where human health, material disclosure and chemical risk management are key considerations.

GreenTag Product Health Declaration™ (PHD™)

The Global GreenTag Product Health Declaration™ (PHD™) provides structured disclosure of a product’s material composition, with ingredients assessed against recognised human health hazard screening criteria.

For HEELGUARD®, the PHD™ supports transparency by clearly identifying disclosed materials and evaluating potential health-related considerations relevant to indoor and outdoor built-environment applications. The PHD™ does not assess overall environmental sustainability or performance claims, but focuses specifically on product health and chemical safety information to assist specifiers and project teams.

GreenTag PlatinumHEALTH HealthRATE™ Certification

The PlatinumHEALTH HealthRATE™ level represents Global GreenTag’s highest product health benchmark. This rating reflects an independent assessment of disclosed materials and their associated human health considerations across relevant exposure pathways, in accordance with Global GreenTag’s HealthRATE™ methodology.

PlatinumHEALTH HealthRATE™ certification indicates that HEELGUARD® demonstrates a high level of product health performance, based on the information assessed at the time of certification.

Product Description and Applications

HEELGUARD® stainless steel grate and tray, and grate and frame systems are designed as a slip-resistant architectural surface for use in public and high-traffic environments. The grate design prevents penetration by women’s high-heel footwear, reducing trip hazards in pedestrian areas.

The system uses 100% Australian-manufactured wedge wire grating and is produced in 304 or 316-grade stainless steel, selected according to project exposure and durability requirements.

Typical applications include:

• Bathrooms and amenities
• Pool surrounds
• Pedestrian walkways and public spaces
• Driveway crossovers
• Balconies and terraces
• Landscaping and external paved areas

What This Means for Specifiers (Plain English)

If you are specifying products for projects with health-focused design goals:

• The Product Health Declaration™ provides clear, third-party-reviewed material disclosure, helping you understand what the product is made from.
• PlatinumHEALTH HealthRATE™ indicates the product has been independently assessed against Global GreenTag’s highest product health benchmark.
• These certifications can support health-conscious material selection in projects targeting frameworks such as Green Star®, WELL™ or similar health-aligned rating tools, without making automatic credit or compliance claims.
• The information supports due diligence, transparency and documentation requirements often requested by sustainability consultants, ESD teams and certifiers.

(Actual credit eligibility depends on the specific project, tool version and assessment pathway.)
