BREEAM (Building Research Establishment’s Environmental Assessment Method) is an internationally recognized method for assessing and certifying the sustainability of buildings. Since its launch in 1990, BREEAM has certified more than 270,000 buildings and is currently present in more than 63 countries around the world. Regardless of their location, the common denominator of these buildings is their planning, design, construction and operation in accordance with best practice sustainability principles.
