BREEAM Certification
The UBBO Shopping Resort, managed and commercialized by CBRE, was distinguished with ‘Excellent’ by one of the main international building sustainability certification systems, BREEAM, for the Building and Management categories in the “In-Use” aspect.
This system, developed by the Building Research Establishment (BRE), allows the degree of sustainability of buildings to be measured, with the main aim of reducing operating costs and improving their environmental performance.
BREEAM certification evaluates buildings in three different categories – “New Construction”, which monitors the sustainable performance of buildings in the design and construction phases; “In Use”, which measures the same parameter, including the features of the building and its management procedures; and the “Refurbishment” category.
This certification allows owners and tenants to assess the building’s management practices, develop action plans to improve them and benchmark against other buildings. Through this system, properties will benefit from reduced operating costs, reduced environmental impact, improved levels of international recognition, reinforced corporate responsibility and, consequently, increased development of good practices, affirming themselves as more sustainable companies.
Even during the pandemic, UBBO has worked to affirm sustainability as one of its strategic pillars, and this certification is an important achievement for everyone.
