Luxer One, a manufacturer of smart lockers and package delivery technology, has been recognized by the U.S. Green Building Council to assist architects and designers seeking LEED certification for projects, according to a press release.

Luxer One smart lockers now contribute towards EA and MR credits for LEED EB: O&M certification, as well as EA, MR and EQ credits for LEED: BD+C certification.

This recognition extends to all Luxer One lockers, including the Luxer kiosk and True Residential refrigerated units.

Luxer One's smart lockers achieved this recognition due to the company's materials specification, partnerships with sustainability-minded manufacturers and energy-efficient design. According to the report issued by Assa Abloy, Luxer One's parent company, the smart lockers:

• Use less energy than comparable systems. After testing the energy usage of a building with Luxer One smart lockers in place, it was found that the indoor lockers use 224.48 kWh of power per year, and outdoor lockers use only 131.40 kWh annually.
• Contain large amounts of recycled steel. Luxer One partners with steel suppliers who certify that, on average, 70.9% of their products contain recycled material.
• Low-lead electronics. The lead content in Luxer One lockers' electrical wiring and cabling measures less than 300 ppm.
• Emit no VOCs. The lockers contain no binders, coatings or sealants that include organic compounds.
