The LandBank Plaza in Malate, Manila was recently conferred with the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) v4 Gold Certification. This makes the bank the first in the country to receive the latest version of the certification under the “Building Operations and Maintenance (BO+M): Existing Buildings” classification.
LandBank is also the first government-owned and-controlled corporation with a facility awarded an LEED certification for Existing Buildings, while its head office remains one of the country’s top seven pioneering projects that have been successfully certified.
Designed by the US Green Building Council (USGBC), LEED is the most widely used green building rating system to assess environmental compliance in terms of sustainability, energy conservation, water reduction, air quality and materials, and resources.
“LandBank has remained consistent in incorporating environmental management practices in all aspects of our operations, services, and decisions. This LEED v4 Gold Certification is thus a welcome recognition of our continuing commitment to implement green practices and to lower our environmental impact,” said LandBank Executive Vice President Julio Climaco, Jr.
