BREEAM is an international system with certification being made by an external party. Also, BREEAM takes into consideration conditions outside the building, which we see as an advantage. We always take responsibility beyond the property boundary, and then we want to know that even these efforts are done in a climate-smart way.
We environmentally certify all investment properties according to BREEAM In-Use with the ambition of achieving Very Good, and new construction projects according to BREEAM-SE with the goal of achieving Excellent.
There are many reasons to certify our buildings:
- Our tenants can feel secure in their choice of workplace
- The value of the properties increases
- Loans become less expensive as more investors seek sustainable investments
Conscious customers want certified offices
With the current focus on reducing global warming and the willingness to help achieve the UN Sustainable Development Goals, more and more customers think that an environmentally certified workplace is a hygiene factor. Being an environmentally conscious and proactive employer is becoming increasingly important in terms of employer branding, and we welcome this development.
