The Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Green Building Rating and Certification
program was implemented to promote the adoption of best practices in sustainable green building and
development.
Accepted internationally as the benchmark for the design, construction and operation of high
performance green buildings, LEED organizes credits into five main categories of human and
environmental health:
- Sustainable site development
- Materials selection
- Indoor environmental quality
- Water efficiency
- Energy efficiency
LEED credit ratings can be increased by using indoor plants and green walls to significantly improve
air quality, increase energy efficiency and enhance health and wellness.
Every day, Planterra helps professionals such as property developers, building managers, designers
and architects to integrate the right quantity and quality of plants into environments to enhance
attractiveness, maximize value and help contribute to LEEDs ratings.
