BREEAM Excellent Laboratory

We are delighted to announce that the Building Research Establishment have just certified that the
recently completed laboratory building for the Centre for Ecology & Hydrology, Oxfordshire, has achieved a BREEAM Environmental Assessment rating of ‘Excellent’.

Typical Research Laboratory Interior
The accommodation provides high grade laboratory space for chemistry and molecular biology,.and includes office spaces and meeting rooms which enjoy views over meadowland to the River Thames.  

Funding provided by the Natural Environment Research Council was partly dependent on achieving the highest available BREEAM rating.  R H Partnership rose to the challenge, utilising a list of potential environmental impacts to inform every aspect of the design process from feasibility stage onwards.
