Green Buildings
We support professional firms, clients, and businesses in obtaining the major green certifications for new, renovated, or historic buildings—through a comprehensive consulting process for green building certifications, from strategy to final documentation.
Green Building Certification
Rating SYSTEM
Green Building
LEED® Certification
The world’s most widely used green building certification program. It evaluates energy efficiency, indoor environmental quality, life-cycle impacts, land use, and water management.
BREEAM® Certification
The most widely adopted environmental assessment system for buildings in Europe. It covers the entire project lifecycle—from design to post-construction management—with a flexible framework that adapts to different contexts and objectives.
WELL® Certification
The standard protocol for those who wish to certify the quality of indoor environments from a health perspective. It provides an integrated analysis of air, water, light, acoustic and thermal comfort, physical activity, and psychological well-being.
LEED Mapping
We analyze construction products to identify which LEED credits they can support and to what extent. This is a useful tool for manufacturers and distributors who want to position their materials in green building projects.
Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of a Building
Life cycle assessment (LCA) applied to an entire building (Building LCA) quantifies the environmental impacts of the entire construction process, from material production to demolition. It is an essential tool for designing sustainable buildings and for reporting on the sustainability performance of the building stock with reliable data.
