From Compliance to Competitive Advantage
As environmental transparency requirements continue to evolve, compliance is becoming the baseline for building projects. Through green building certifications, verified environmental data and expert guidance, we help project teams turn sustainability ambitions into measurable project value.
The United Nations Environment Programme estimates that buildings consume around 60 percent of the world’s electricity.
We understand the importance our customers place on “building better”. In a global survey of security professionals for our 2021 Wireless Access Control Report, 90 percent of respondents agreed that sustainability concerns would impact their technology choices over the next five years.
We offer a range of door and access solutions which help new and existing buildings to reduce their environmental footprint. Our product range includes electronic locking self-powered by energy harvesting technology. We offer access solutions which help organizations to reduce their use of plastics by issuing smartphone credentials instead of fobs and key-cards.
Green Building Certification
Demonstrate sustainability leadership
As environmental transparency becomes the norm, green building certifications remain a powerful way to distinguish projects and showcase sustainability performance.
To support project teams, ASSA ABLOY provides certification contribution sheets that demonstrate how our doors, hardware and access solutions can help contribute towards credits within leading certification schemes. Combined with verified environmental data and green building expertise, these resources help simplify certification and sustainability assessments.
Whether you're pursuing BREEAM, LEED, WELL, DGNB, Green Star or HQE certification, our resources can help simplify the documentation process and support informed specification decisions.
Supporting certification schemes:
Environmental Product Declarations
Credibility and confidence
Our product development and innovation processes embed sustainability and carbon reduction principles from the outset. We target transparency across the full life-cycle of products and building solutions, including by publishing independently audited Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) for multiple access control and security product ranges.
Our growing range of integrated and integration-ready solutions for smart buildings are engineered to provide a platform for more energy-efficient building management.
