AFI Romania has announced that all four buildings within the AFI Arad retail park have achieved LEED Gold certification. The certified buildings include AFI Arad Strip Mall, AFI Arad McDonald's, AFI Arad Leroy Merlin and AFI Arad Shopping Gallery.
LEED valuates real estate projects based on criteria such as energy efficiency, water consumption, responsible material use, indoor environmental quality and the integration of sustainable solutions in building operations.
"The LEED Gold certification for all buildings within AFI Arad is an important validation of the way this project was designed and delivered from the very early development stage," said Sorin Scântei, General Manager AFI Arad.
The certification process was coordinated by Colliers through its specialised division.
AFI Arad is the first retail park developed by AFI Romania in the country, with a gross leasable area of 29,400 sqm, offering 950 above-ground parking spaces.
