With
its comprehensive service offering, Green Builder® is addressing
a large market opportunity. Social and economic transformation is impacting
all industries. Ideas that were once considered to be ‘fringe’
are now main-stream, as indicated by the increased demand for environmentally
appropriate building materials, healthier indoor air quality, renewable
energy, and socially responsible investments.
The green building industry is growing rapidly. There are over 1000
LEED®* certified buildings around the world. This emerging market
transformation is reflected not just in the supply side of the green
building industry, but in the demand side as well. Consumer demand for
green building has increased significantly over the past 5 years as
individuals and organizations are embracing the message of sustainability
to create healthier spaces. General market conditions point towards
a substantial unmet demand for ecologically and socially oriented residential
and mixed use real-estate development projects. It is this opportunity
that Green Builder® is successfully addressing.
*The LEED standards are guidelines that measure the sustainability of
commercial and residential buildings, created by the U.S. Green Building
Council. For more information, go to www.usgbc.org.
