Sustainability

Green Loop develops LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certification consulting services for projects in the design and construction stage, as well as for existing projects that are in the operation and maintenance stage.

We are leaders in Latin America and the United States in LEED certification projects and with our consulting services we have been able to help our clients create and develop buildings with high energy and environmental performance, achieving high standards in energy and water savings, waste reduction, use of low environmental impact materials, air quality and comfort for users.
LEED is the world's most widely recognized sustainable certification system. It was created by the USGBC (United States Sustainable Building Council), and is administered by GBCI (Green Business Certification Inc). The system evaluates the design, construction and operation of buildings in terms of energy efficiency and environmental performance

Green Loop works with clients in the pursuit of EDGE (Excellence In Design For Greater Efficiencies) certification, in order to implement sustainability, energy efficiency and water efficiency strategies in their projects, achieving buildings that are resilient to climate change and have a low environmental impact.

The EDGE certification was created by the IFC (International Finance Corporation), with the support of the World Bank to promote the sustainability of buildings in emerging countries.
This certification evaluates 3 chapters: Energy efficiency, Water savings and Energy embodied in materials.

LEED for Cities and Communities is a certification program that evaluates sustainability at the city and community level, aimed at improving the quality of life of the people who live in these areas. At Green Loop we achieved the first LEED C&C certification for a project in Latin America, demonstrating our commitment to sustainability in a comprehensive manner.

ENVISION is a certification with a broad and global vision of infrastructure projects, which evaluates the value that these projects bring to the community where they are located and their contribution to sustainability. In Green Loop we have qualified personnel for technical support in the development of sustainable infrastructure projects, from ports, bridges, roads, to wind farms, among others.

Sites is a certification for urban developments with an emphasis on ecology, landscaping and nature and their integration with the built environment. Sites can be applied to development projects with or without buildings, including parks, squares, streets and different uses such as commercial, residential, institutional, educational and others.
