What’s BREEAM
BREEAM assessment was created in England in 1992, as the first assessment method of sustainable buildings in the world. Nowadays it’s the most widely used on the planet – with 300 thousand certified buildings, 10 times more than others. The basis to define BREEAM sustainable issues are researches developed by BRE (Building Research Establishment) that works for more than a century with universities and governments.
