The BREEAM (Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method)

BREEAM (Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method) is a system used to evaluate the environmental performance of buildings. It assesses aspects such as energy efficiency, water use, materials, waste management, pollution, and overall impact on the environment. The goal is to encourage sustainable building practices by providing a rating that reflects a building’s environmental friendliness, from basic compliance to excellent standards. Achieving a high BREEAM score demonstrates a commitment to sustainability, helping building owners, investors, and occupants reduce environmental impact and promote healthier, more efficient environments.
