The importance of green buildings
Daikin’s Acreddited Professionals (AP’s) offer advice in order to enhance the sustainable performance of your building with Daikin solutions. By investing in a BREEAM, LEED, WELL or other green buidling certification, you can reduce operation and maintenance costs, stay ahead of legislation, create a better quality of life for the building user and increase the market value of your building.
As a green building expert, Daikin’s Acreddited Professionals (AP’s) offer advice and the solutions to reach the sustainable performance of your building.
Daikin is your green partner
As every building is unique, it requires a different solution to match its unique properties. It is essential to have an HVAC-R partner like Daikin, with knowledge and portfolio to achieve your green objectives while staying within budget.
Our HVAC-R total solutions increase the environmental value of buildings and enhance the working environment of tenants. Integration of Daikin technologies will therefore contribute to the overall sustainability level of the building and enable you to reach the highest levels in green building certification.
What is BREEAM, LEED and WELL?
BREEAM, LEED and WELL are the three most widely used green bulding rating systems in the world. They provide a framework to assist building owners, architects and designers in choosing sustainable solutions that are long term and cost effective.
How do they work?
Using independent and licensed assessors, they evaluate energy efficiency and water use, health and well-being, pollution, transport, materials, waste, ecology and management processes, and give buildings a rating based on these scientific evaluations in categories based on the number of points achieved.
By creating these targets ahead of regulatory requirements, this encourages greater sustainability and innovation in the building industry.
Daikin BREEAM/LEED Assessment Sheet
Created by our team of experts, the BREEAM and LEED Assessment sheet gives you advice and support to increase your building’s rating through Daikin heat pump technology.
By using this sheet as base of evidence towards assessors, you save time when applying for BREEAM or LEED certification.

Our green building projects
Daikin has succesfully participated in many sustainable projects. Helping builders achieve BREEAM Excellent, LEED Gold, WELL and similar certificates, has become one of our specialities - and our case studies prove it!
BES 6001 certification
Daikin's factories in Belgium and the Czech Republic, and its VRV, Sky Air, Daikin Altherma, Split and Chiller systems are all BES 6001 certified. This certification ensures socially, economically and environmentally responsible sourcing throughout the supply chain. BES 6001 is officially recognised by BREAAM and increases the green building rating.
Variable Refrigerant Volume (VRV) and inverter technology
BREEAM, LEED and Daikin all view energy efficiency as a top priority when developing your green project. The best investment you can choose is Daikin's Variable Refrigerant Volume for VRV systems, because it allows you to adjust your refrigerant temperature to reflect actual conditions; creating optimal seasonal efficiency at all times. Daikin’s VRV, Chiller, and refrigeration heat recovery units all use inverter technology to provide the highest BREEAM and LEED scores for energy efficient calculations.
The Intelligent Network
To drastically reduce your building's energy consumption, the operation of an air conditioner needs to be managed and monitored 24/7. Daikin’s Intelligent Network (i-Net) is a web-based data and analytics tool which allows you to focus on your core business and leave the HVAC-R management to us. Our Daikin i-Net continuously fine tunes your system’s operation without intervention on your side.
