The need for “Green Compliance” has never been as urgent
With the price of fuel escalating and the urgency to address climate change compliance around green standards has never been in as much demand.
When we launched in 2020 it was our aim to be the certification body of choice within the wider construction sector, with a strong focus around standards that support the drive of decarbonisation and energy efficiency.
Not just a certificate
Gaining compliance and certification is not just about showcasing to stakeholders that your organisation is serious about green strategies – but a real opportunity to:
- Perform better as an organisation
- Be more efficient, increasing profit margins
- Qualify for frameworks, funding and contracts
Which certification is right for your organisation?
Who needs this?
Most organisations that are responsible for their own energy use, such as office facilities, hospitals, retail and leisure parks, schools and universities, industrial and manufacturing plants.
What it is
The new ISO 50001 standard for energy management systems can help safeguard our future by making a positive difference in the here and now.
ISO 50001 provides a framework of requirements for organisations to:
- Develop a policy for more efficient use of energy
- Fix targets and objectives to meet the policy
- Use data to better understand and make decisions about energy use
- Measure the results
- Review how well the policy works, and
- Continually improve energy management
Who needs this?
Contractors who install insulation, windows, gas and electrical measures relating to making a building more energy efficient.
What it is
Contractors are moving quickly to gain PAS 2030 alongside TrustMark registration as more and more framework agreements and contracts are emerging stating the need to have certification for PAS 2030.
Who needs this?
Installers, designers, architects and principle contractors who are responsible for the design of the retrofit of energy efficiency measures in domestic buildings.
What it is

Who needs this?
Designers, architects and principle contractors who are responsible for the design of the retrofit of energy efficiency measures in commercial buildings.
What it is
Published in 2021, PAS 2038 this is crucial in driving down the energy use in existing building stock. With commercial buildings being much more complex than domestic, this standard helps on the impact of energy use within hospitals, schools, retail parks, leisure facilities and office space via the retrofit of energy efficiency measures.
Who needs this?
Most organisations have an impact on the environment and ISO 14001 is suitable for a wide range of businesses.
