LEED certification, short for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design, is a globally recognized program by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) for designing, constructing, and operating sustainable buildings. It provides a framework of rating systems and guidelines to promote environmentally responsible practices and efficient resource use, resulting in healthier spaces with lower operational costs. The certification signifies a commitment to sustainability, with different levels (Certified, Silver, Gold, Platinum) awarded based on points earned for meeting various sustainable design criteria.

With energy-efficient lighting, solar panels, and rainwater harvesting systems, we’ve reduced the building’s energy consumption by 40% and its water use by 50%. 100% Waste (production and food) management. This isn’t just a win for us—it’s a win for the planet.

We faced challenges like providing fresh air in the production space. Also, we overcame some challenges in plantation on the rooftop, to keep the top floor cool during the hot climate. They have incorporated efficient waste management as well as a green awareness program.
