How Is BREEAM Assessed?

BREEAM's aim is to educate building designers, owners and occupiers throughout Ashton Under Lyne about the impact their building has on the local area. To do this, BREEAM gives a rating of Outstanding, Excellent, Very Good, Good or a Pass based on transport, waste, energy, health, water, pollution, materials, management and ecology.

What Does BREEAM Stand For?

First published by the Building Reseearch Establishment (BRE) in 1990 covering buildings across Ashton Under Lyne, BREEAM stands for Building Research Establishment's Enviromental Assement Method.

How To Achieve BREEAM Excellence

What Are The Benefits of BREEAM?

BREEAM aims to show that by building with the local area in mind, though capital costs may increase, you should save on operational costs in the long-term. This limits investor costs and makes the building more attractive when it comes to selling.
