Are you looking to achieve formal building certification for your property? RED Engineering Design provides specialist consultancy services to guide your project through every stage of the certification journey, from early-stage planning to final assessment and operational use.
Certification is a vital part of modern building design. We help clients navigate the complexity of certification standards and deliver high-performing, future-ready buildings.
Our experience spans a wide range of sectors and building types, both new build and refurbishments, including commercial spaces, data centres, hospitals, airports, industrial and retail environments, where we integrate certification strategies with mechanical, electrical, and public health (MEP) design to ensure real-world performance as well as formal recognition.

What is BREEAM Certification?
BREEAM (Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method) is the UK’s leading sustainability assessment method for buildings and infrastructure. It sets benchmarks in various categories such as energy efficiency, materials, waste, health and wellbeing, to name but a few.
Whether required by local planning authorities or driven by ESG strategies, BREEAM Certification demonstrates your project’s environmental credentials and supports long-term operational performance.
At RED Engineering Design, we work closely with clients at an early stage to fully understand their aspirations and help to embed BREEAM targets, ensuring design choices align with certification pathways from day one.
BREEAM Certification demonstrates a commitment to sustainability and showcases your project's environmental credentials. and It can also supports long-term operational performance by embedding sustainability targets from the start, especially when followed with BREEAM In Use.Alexandra Vella Technical Director
What is LEED Certification?
LEED stands for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design, and is an internationally recognised green building certification system developed by the U.S. Green Building Council. It provides a flexible framework for healthy and efficient, and above all, environmentally responsible buildings, applicable across building types, from commercial to infrastructure, and throughout all stages of the project lifecycle.
LEED Certification supports sustainable design and construction through a robust credit system that rewards performance in areas such as energy use, water efficiency, indoor environmental quality, material selection, and innovation. For many clients, it’s a critical step toward reducing carbon footprint, improving occupant wellbeing, and lowering long-term operating costs.
At RED Engineering Design, we bring a global perspective to LEED projects, working collaboratively with clients, architects, developers, and project teams to integrate sustainability targets into project design from the outset.
