ISO 21929 Certification Services

What is ISO 21929-1:2021?
ISO 21929-1:2021 is an international standard that defines the framework for sustainability indicators in building construction. It helps organizations assess and report the sustainability performance of buildings throughout their lifecycle. The standard ensures a balance between environmental, social, and economic aspects, providing a common language for stakeholders involved in sustainable development. ISO 21929 is applicable to new construction and major renovation projects, enabling organizations to demonstrate their commitment to green building practices and responsible construction.

ISO 21929 – Overview
ISO 21929-1 supports the planning, design, construction, and operation phases of buildings by offering clear guidelines for selecting and reporting sustainability indicators. These indicators help decision-makers evaluate building performance in areas such as resource efficiency, energy use, emissions, comfort, accessibility, and lifecycle costs. The standard does not prescribe specific targets but gives a structure to assess and communicate sustainability goals aligned with national or project-specific priorities. It can be applied by developers, architects, consultants, or policy makers aiming for sustainable outcomes in the built environment.
