The Tower building at the city centre office park Spielberk in Brno is the first commercial building outside the UK to receive the BREEAM outstanding certificate.
The Tower building was designed to green building standards and reduces CO2 emissions by more than 50% compared to a typical building built to Czech regulations. Furthermore the building also uses district heating, a heat exchanger and a heat recovery system and local renewable energy sources.
The façade of the concrete frame comprises 50% reused materials. Stefan deGoeij, head of property management at developer CTP, said: “That CTP has successfully delivered the first BREEAM Outstanding building in continental Europe is a testament to our long-term commitment to developing premium-class properties at the highest standards.”
