BREEAM In-Use certification, a globally recognised standard for sustainable building performance, reflects the property’s commitment to reducing its environmental impact while enhancing guest comfort and experience.
Only around 10% of refurbished buildings in the United Kingdom achieve an ‘Excellent’ rating, making this accreditation a significant achievement.
The Accreditation Process
The journey to BREEAM In-Use certification required a thorough evaluation across eight key categories, including energy efficiency, water conservation, and indoor environmental quality. Each category contained multiple sub-categories, with detailed evidence required to meet specific sustainability criteria. Some of the most challenging aspects included compiling extensive documentation, conducting onsite assessments, and meeting stringent evaluation standards.
