BREEAM is sometimes referred to as BREEAM Assessments, BREEAM Reports, BREEAM Assessment Ratings, BREEAM Assessors, BREEAM Rating.
What Are The Benefits of BREEAM?
A BREEAM certification is a way of validating how good a building in Gorseinon is in terms of the environmental impact through a globally recognised standard. It's the hope that the BREEAM assessment will help building owners and designers to improve their carbon footprint and make better use of their resources.
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.
What Does BREEAM Stand For?
First published by the Building Reseearch Establishment (BRE) in 1990 covering buildings across Gorseinon, BREEAM stands for Building Research Establishment's Enviromental Assement Method.
