Sustainably Enhance Your Property with BREEAM In-Use Consulting
Guiding you towards a more sustainable future through tailored BREEAM In-Use assessments and certifications.
Achieving Sustainability for Existing Buildings with BREEAM In-Use
What is BREEAM In-Use?
BREEAM In-Use is a global standard for assessing the sustainability of existing buildings, covering three key areas:
Asset Performance – Evaluate the building’s environmental impact, focusing on energy efficiency, water usage, and material sustainability.
Building Management – Assesses how effectively the building is operated and maintained, looking at energy monitoring, waste management, and implementing sustainable practices.
Use of the Building (BREEAM NL) – Unique to the Netherlands, this section focuses on how the building is used by occupants, measuring aspects like indoor air quality, health, and well-being.
These assessments provide a comprehensive understanding of the building’s sustainability, leaving no stone unturned in its management and use.
What is BREEAM In-Use Consulting?
