Certifications for Green Buildings

Certifications make the sustainability of a building measurable and visible. The awards guarantee high resource efficiency for energy, water and materials. The owners of certified buildings benefit from an increase in value and efficiency that quickly recoups the amount of labour required for the certification. Studies show that, due to improved ventilation and lighting, the users of Green Buildings enjoy increased productivity and a reduction in illness-related absences.
