New BREEAM In-Use Excellent certifications
Let’s start with our Central building, which upgraded its rating from ‘Good’ to ‘Excellent’ with an impressive score of 76.3%. This achievement was made possible through several key improvements, including:
- Clear signage prohibiting smoking and vaping, even in outdoor areas
- Enhanced water leak detection system
- Upgraded LED lighting in technical rooms, with twilight sensors to manage outdoor lighting
- Implementation of ecological study recommendations: bird nesting boxes, insect hotels, and new plantings
- Assessment of the building’s adaptability
- Climate change risk study and action plan implementation
Additionally, our buildings Arts56, and Science-Montoyer in Brussels, Gateway at Brussels Airport, and Cubus in Luxembourg have also been awarded BREEAM In-Use Excellent certifications, thanks to similar modifications and improvements.
This recognition is part of our broader ambition to certify all our buildings.
We are actively working to secure more certifications by the end of the year!
