Sustainability: a commitment of Imper Italia

Green Building Council Italia

IMPER ITALIA has joined the GREEN BUILDING COUNCIL ITALIA: an association that aims to promote and accelerate the dissemination of a sustainable construction culture, to raise awareness among public opinion and Institutions on the impact that the building design and construction methods have on the quality of life of citizens, providing clear reference parameters to sector operators.

GBC ITALIA has the task of promoting and developing the characteristics and standards of LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) in Italy. These are parameters for sustainable construction developed in the USA and already applied in 41 countries around the world, for the development and promotion of “green” buildings.

LEED

LEED‘s task is to:

  • Establish a common standard for measuring “green buildings”, defined as buildings with a low environmental impact;
  • Provide and promote an integrated design system relating to the entire building;
  • Give recognition for virtuous projects in the field of construction;
  • Stimulate the challenge on the theme of environmental performance;
  • Establish market value by creating a globally recognised brand;
  • Help customers and increase their awareness of the importance of green building;
  • Transform the market and the construction sector.
