Property developer AFI Europe aims to obtain by 2025 the LEED Zero Carbon certification for all ongoing office projects, and also for all future AFI Europe’s projects targeted to be developed in the future in Romania. 


On the long run, the company's strategy involves a carbon-free approach for all ongoing office projects and that will be developed on the local market. 

To date, the developer has obtained LEED and BREEAM green certifications for all seven office projects existing in its portfolio: AFI Park, AFI Tech Park, AFI Victoriei Plaza, AFI Park Floreasca, AFI Lakeview, AFI Park Timișoara and AFI Park Brașov, and also for AFI Brașov shopping center and AFI City Bucuresti Noi residential compound which received the certification Green Homes. AFI Cotroceni and AFI Ploiești shopping centers are under process of obtaining the green certification. 

“We are investing significantly in the latest solutions for reducing water and energy consumption, using renewable resources, selective waste collection, as well as encouraging sustainable transportation for the tenants by using bicycles and electric cars," said Emma Toma - Head of Office Division, AFI Europe Romania. 

Real estate consultancy Colliers is assisting AFI Europe in its efforts to reach carbon neutrality across its local portfolio.
