Sustainability is a core part of the DNA of SES Spar European Shopping Centers and has once again been officially confirmed with the latest certification.
This means that both sites meet the highest standards in energy efficiency, indoor climate, ecology, and environmental compatibility, positioning them among the frontrunners in the region.
Christoph Andexlinger, CEO, SES Spar European Shopping Centers:
“In a family, you care about the future opportunities of your children. As a family-owned company, this long-term orientation is therefore a key part of the SES DNA. Our daily decisions are guided by this commitment to future generations. The progress we have made so far, including the current BREEAM In-Use certification, reinforces our determination to consistently pursue this path – one that is not always easy, but geared towards the future. For us, sustainability goes well beyond our ecological footprint. I would like to thank the SES Italy team for their daily commitment to sustainability.”
With the certification, IPERCITY and LE BRENTELLE underline their ambition to create living environments that take responsibility.
This represents an important milestone for the entire Padua region, as the two leading shopping centers set new sustainability benchmarks in both operations and management.
A certificate that builds trust
BREEAM (Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method) In-Use is one of the world’s leading assessment systems for existing buildings. Recognised in more than 80 countries, it analyses factors such as energy consumption, public transport accessibility, water management and overall user experience. The evaluation focuses on common areas – the spaces used by millions of people every year.
Sustainably assessed spaces provide not only stable prospects for customers and employees: particularly for investors, BREEAM In-Use certified properties serve as a guarantee of efficiency, quality and long-term value development.
