AMO Biosourced Label

The Biosourced label is a state-sponsored label that encourages and promotes the use of renewable materials. These materials are derived from biomass (primarily plant-based or sheep's wool).

The advantage of these materials is to reduce the carbon footprint of construction; but also to be integrated into a more local economy.


The indicator monitored by this label is the rate of stored biogenic carbon, to enhance carbon storage within biomass materials. The calculation is based on the estimated table in Appendix IV of the decree of December 19, 2012, relating to the content and contribution of the Biosourced Building label. Then, it is repeated with the actual quantities announced by the product sheets and FDES.


Thus, the conformity check is carried out by a certifier during two phases:

  • Based on the design file: completeness of a ZIP Label, including the estimated table and technical documents
  • At the bottom of the DOE file: completeness of the ZIP Label, including photo report, technical sheets of the materials used, delivery notes

The bio-sourced label applies to new buildings. It covers several types of activity, each with a specific objective (and three performance levels).

Detached house

Industry, storage, transport service

Other uses (collective housing, hotel, offices, commerce, education, etc.)

The label is verified and issued by several certifiers, depending on the type of building

CERQUAL


For individual and collective housing, with the obligation to support NF Habitat certification

ACHIEVEMENTS


For collective housing, for offices, with the obligation to support a BEE label

CERTIFICATE


For tertiary buildings, with the obligation to support HQE B or HQE BD certification

KEDROUS supports you in obtaining the Bas Biosourced label

In their role as project management assistant, KEDROUS employees will support you in setting up the process and preparing the file, participate in technical validation throughout the design phase, and then, during the construction phase, will verify the implementation of bio-sourced products.

  • Preparation of labeling files
  • Assistance during the design phase
  • Assistance during the execution phase


KEDROUS employees working on the various certifications will therefore be able to support you regardless of your choice of certifier.
