Description

The Red List of Materials is a tool developed by the International Living Future Institute (ILFI) to identify and document the "worst in class" materials, chemicals, and elements that have been, and are being, used in building products. All of these materials pose serious risks to human health and the greater ecosystem. The Red List is one component of the ILFI Living Building Challenge program. The goal is to produce construction pieces that are free of toxins and harmful chemicals by avoiding all compounds on this list.

The entire list of almost 12000 chemicals can be downloaded here. Below is a table showing the chemical classification summary of the Red List materials:
