LEED Platinum certification for 3Burės
Eastnine is pleased to announce that the two original towers of the modern office complex 3Burės in the central business district of Vilnius were awarded LEED Platinum certification. This is an achievement in line with Eastnine’s goal to certify all properties in Eastnine’s portfolio, and its commitment to sustainable office development.
“We are very proud of the efforts made by our team in Vilnius in order to achieve this certification. This accomplishment is one of many to come and illustrates our commitment to sustainable property development” says Kestutis Sasnauskas, CEO.
The LEED-rating system (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) is developed by the U.S. Green Building Council to recognise the top green building strategies and practices and is the most widely used third-party verification process for green buildings. LEED Platinum is the highest possible certification level awarded to projects scoring over 80 points on a 110-scale. 3Burės was awarded 93 points with remarkably high results on materials & resources, energy & atmosphere as well as water efficiency.
3Burės is an A-class office property build in 2008, consisting of two skyscrapers with a total leasable area of 28,400 sqm. The third and newest tower of 3Burės consisting of 13,270 sqm, which was commissioned in August, received LEED Platinum pre-certification in the design phase and is expected to receive LEED Platinum certification later this year. Including the third tower in 3Burės, 65% of the total leasable area in Eastnine’s property portfolio is awarded LEED Platinum.
