Delivering Europe’s first WELL™ Gold certified warehouse
As more and more businesses around the world strive for sustainability, it is increasingly important to classify the green industry standards and endorsements to gain.
When it comes to wellbeing, WELL certification, which draws on the latest health and well-being research, has established itself as an industry standard for rewarding best practice in operations, management and workspace design.
As well as improving health and productivity, achieving WELL certification offers businesses a host of marketplace advantages.
“Working with Novacene allowed us to produce the first WELL Certified™️ Gold Warehouse in the second quarter of 2020.”
Supporting developers and tenants
That’s why, when a developer set out to deliver Europe’s first WELL gold-certified warehouse, it turned to Novacene for help gathering the data and insights necessary to ensure potential tenants could meet - and continue meeting - WELL’s stringent requirements.
Gold WELL certification requires a substantial, ongoing commitment - on the part of tenants - to monitor in-scope data, ensuring data accessibility to building occupants and acting on any anomalies highlighted.
Meeting this industry standard is about much more than simply building a property and handing it over. It requires an infrastructure available for tenants to sustain certification alongside day-to-day operations.
Certification requires businesses to demonstrate excellence across a number of categories, including: air, comfort, fitness, light, mind, nourishment and water.
Supporting a sustainable ecosystem
A cutting-edge conversation with WELL was pivotal to adapt standards originally set for commercial offices to the industrial asset class. The Novacene solution exceeds the requirement from WELL and means that the developer will be the market leader, the first to offer WELL Gold in the Industrial sector.
The Novacene platform allows the developer to hand the property over to a tenant with a reliable, self-sustaining ecosystem, ensuring that they remain WELL-certified throughout their tenancy.
Importantly the platform requires very little effort from tenants, except to act on the automated, actionable insights it provides users.
