What are the levels of the BREEAM Certification?
There are six levels to BREEAM certifications, from “Outstanding” as the best score and “Pass” as the lowest certified score.
While passing the certification is still a positive achievement, aiming for a higher score can add more value. A BREEAM rating (such as “Excellent” or “Outstanding”) demonstrates a greater commitment to sustainability which can enhance your reputation, achieve your sustainability goals and attract more clients.
