Sustainability is at the core of Acentech’s practice. We have consulted on hundreds of LEED-certified, WELL-certified, and NetZero projects, with an estimated quarter of our work over the past decade spent advancing sustainable design.

We align our services with the top rating systems—including LEED, WELL, Fitwel, Energy Star, and the International Green Construction Code (IgCC), —to help design teams create environments that reduce environmental impact while enhancing occupant comfort, health, and well-being.
