The partners of KSI are committed to the LEED Professional Accreditation certification process. Our experts will work shoulder-to-shoulder with your designers and throughout the construction process to build or renovate your property in an environmentally sensitive manner.
We stand ready to partner with you and to compliment your designers, operations team and architects on your green building program. The following highlights a few of the value features from a Green Building program:
- The Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Green Building Rating System™ encourages and accelerates global adoption of sustainable green building and development practices through the creation and implementation of universally understood and accepted tools and performance criteria.
- The LEED for Existing Buildings Rating System helps building owners and operators measure operations, improvements and maintenance on a consistent scale, with the goal of maximizing operational efficiency while minimizing environmental impacts. LEED for Existing Buildings addresses whole-building cleaning and maintenance issues (including chemical use), recycling programs, exterior maintenance programs, and systems upgrades. It can be applied both to existing buildings seeking LEED certification for the first time and to projects previously certified under LEED for New Construction or Core & Shell.
- LEED for Commercial Interiors is the green benchmark for the tenant improvement market. It is the recognized system for certifying high-performance green interiors that are healthy, productive places to work; are less costly to operate and maintain; and have a reduced environmental footprint. LEED for Commercial Interiors gives the power to make sustainable choices to tenants and designers, who do not always have control over whole building operations.
Use our “Green Building” expertise and transform your buildings to one that will show your respect to the planet and gain your clients respect for your commitment! And, at the same time, lowering your operating expenditures.
“Going Green” is the wining solution for you the Client, your building Guests, the Builder and the Environment!
