BREEAM is a globally recognised sustainability assessment and certification framework for buildings, infrastructure and the wider built environment. Since 1990, its science-based, third-party certified standards have supported projects throughout their lifecycle, from design and construction to operation, refurbishment and fit-out. The framework helps owners assess and improve environmental and social performance, strengthen ESG alignment, and work toward goals such as net-zero carbon, better health outcomes, biodiversity, circularity and resilience.

BREEAM offers standards for new construction, existing buildings through In-Use, refurbishment and fit-out, infrastructure, residential development, and sustainable communities. Its services and resources include certification, performance benchmarking, technical manuals, case studies, tools, professional training and events. BREEAM also provides standards for projects in the United States and Canada through BREEAM USA.

By providing independent assessment, validated data and benchmarking, BREEAM helps clients demonstrate sustainability performance, inform reporting and decision-making, and identify opportunities to improve assets. Its approach is intended to support stronger asset value, manage risk and deliver positive outcomes across projects and portfolios.
