CHALLENGE

International standard for climate resilience

The greenpass Certification delivers just that and allows to communicate the qualities and value of your project towards sustainability linked fonds, buyers or tenants. It is the perfect complementary match to green building certificates as BREEAM, LEED, DGNB/ÖGNI or klima:aktiv.
