BRE and CEEQUAL have announced plans to bring together two successful schemes – BREEAM and CEEQUAL – to create a single, science-based sustainability standard and certification tool for civil engineering and infrastructure projects in the UK and worldwide.
CEEQUAL has already transferred its business operations to BRE Global, and CEEQUAL will now be delivered by the BREEAM certification team, with continued support from the CEEQUAL scheme management team. The move is supported by the Institution of Civil Engineers and, the two bodies say, has been prompted by the industry’s desire for a single such sustainability rating.
