BREEAM compliant for all standards, including UK NC 2018!

What is a LCA study

An analysis of the environmental impact (including embodied carbon) of the project during it’s lifetime,
using BRE approved tools and databases.

Why do a LCA?

BREEAM: it’s one of the most convenient chapters that can be targeted:
– many credits available;
– high value credits based on the weightings;
– quite safe: once correctly done you shouldn’t worry about BRE’s Quality Assurance step;
– if done with greengineers (or in some cases in-house): very good cost/credit ratio.

Marketing: In a world where many people are with their eyes on CO2 emmissions, interesting charts/ graphics/ infographics/ comparisons can be produced based on a proper LCA. We can help you develop these materials.
