We are pleased that the solutions we implement and use in our shopping and entertainment centres, which are both entertainment-friendly and cater to our visitors and employees, are appreciated by international, globally recognised sustainability experts as well,\u201d says D. Mertinas.<\/p>\n<p>The certificate BREEAM (Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method) from BRE Global confirms that a particular building meets high sustainability requirements of the standards defined by this organisation.<\/p>\n<p>The \u201cGood\u201d assessment that Vilnius and Klaip\u0117da Akropolis, also the Vilnius Akropolis Business Centre had previously, has been upgraded to \u201cVery Good\u201d, meanwhile \u0160iauliai Akropolis has maintained the \u201cVery Good\u201d assessment granted earlier.<\/p>\n<p>Akropole Alfa, the shopping and entertainment centre operating in Riga, enjoys the same \u201cVery Good\u201d assessment in the BREEAM In-Use category. Akropole Riga, another shopping and entertainment centre based in the capital city of Latvia, also holds \u201cVery Good\u201d certificate, however, in a different category \u2013 New Construction.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe had a target for all the shopping centres we control to obtain the \u201cVery Good\u201d assessment according to BREEAM standard by 2026. We are, therefore, greatly delighted to have achieved this goal a year before the target date. The process of certification according to the latest requirements has not only enabled us to verify the sustainability of the buildings we manage but also has helped us to make sure that we are on the right track to provide the best possible conditions and experience in all our centres both for the people who work here and for visitors. In recent years, we have focused on the visitor convenience: we have installed free drinking water stations, renovated childcare rooms and sanitary facilities for people with disabilities,\u201d says D. Mertinas.<\/p>\n<p>When granting BREEAM certification, the building sustainability is assessed in the following areas: inside environment (health and wellbeing), energy consumption for heating and cooling and water consumption, transport solutions, materials used, waste management, ecology and pollution.<\/p>\n<p>Akropolis aims to contribute to sustainability and environmental protection by implementing a variety of effective solutions. Using water-saving devices, lighting systems and a regularly upgraded building management system helps to manage resources responsibly and reduce costs.<\/p>\n<p>Drinking water stations in the shopping centres help to reduce the use of disposable plastic, and specially adapted spaces for people with disabilities and families with children ensure a comfortable visit. Rest areas created for employees add to the improvement of the working environment.<\/p>\n<p>Active waste sorting and recycling, combined with a thorough flood risk assessment and technical assessment, help protect the environment and ensure the durability of the building, thus reducing repair costs. These actions reflect the aim of Akropolis to act responsibly and sustainably.<\/p>\n<p>The audit of the shopping centres to obtain BREEAM certificates was performed by the building sustainability certification and consulting company Vesta Consulting.<\/p>\n            <\/div>\n            <div class=\"social-share-wrap\">\n    <p>Share it:<\/p>\n    <div class=\"links-wrap\">\n        <a id=\"fb\" target=\"_blank\"\n           rel=\"noreferrer\"\n           href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https:\/\/akropolis.lt\/siauliai\/en\/news\/from-now-on-all-shopping-centres-akropolis-managed-by-akropolis-group-in-lithuania-and-latvia-have-breeam-very-good-certificates\/\"\n           class=\"social link\"><span>Facebook<\/span>\n        <\/a>\n        <a id=\"linkedin\" target=\"_blank\"\n           rel=\"noreferrer\"\n           href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/shareArticle?url=https:\/\/akropolis.lt\/siauliai\/en\/news\/from-now-on-all-shopping-centres-akropolis-managed-by-akropolis-group-in-lithuania-and-latvia-have-breeam-very-good-certificates\/\"\n           class=\"social link\"><span>LinkedIn<\/span>\n        <\/a>\n        <div class=\"tooltip copy-link-btn\">\n            <button class=\"link copy-link helper-btn\" data-link=\"https:\/\/akropolis.lt\/siauliai\/en\/news\/from-now-on-all-shopping-centres-akropolis-managed-by-akropolis-group-in-lithuania-and-latvia-have-breeam-very-good-certificates\/\">\n                <span>Copy link<\/span>\n                <p class=\"tooltip-text\"\n                   data-copied=\"Copied!\" id=\"myTooltip\"><\/p>\n            <\/button>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>        <\/div>\n    <\/section>\n\n<script>window.dispatchEvent( new Event('acf\/loaded\/text'));<\/script>","protected":false},"featured_media":2204,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"news_category":[334],"class_list":["post-2203","news","type-news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","news_category-pranesimai-ziniasklaidai"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 -
