Recently in the UK a brand new office building in Birmingham: Calthorpe House, achieved a BREEAM award at the Excellent standard.
The development company responsible for this property: Calthorpe Estates, have in no doubt earned the prize for building what will be a huge achievement for a beautiful and environmentally friendly building.

Recently an initial plan for a warehouse in Staffordshire has been given a BREEAM certification at the "outstanding" grade, only from the building plans.
The property developers have suggested that the property will save a proposed £300k on a none BREEAM accreditied property of similar size..
Previously the impact of a commercial property on the surrounding area has been very much a battle of visual goals, with design and image being the main focus, but now it is clear that in the UK sustainable building methods and ongoing running costs are now being top considerations for many property developers, they must focus on newer building methods to attract the right tenants in what is a tougher market for property agents.
