Green Building

Whether green retro-fitting an existing structure or targeting LEED® Platinum standards for a new building, we deliver solutions that our clients and the planet appreciate.

As long-standing members of both the Canadian and U.S. Green Building Councils and one of the first companies in North America to participate in the Living Building Challenge, Ledcor continues to be a leader in green construction. 

We make it a priority to stay ahead of the sustainability curve. We were building LEED v4 projects, in both Canada and the U.S., well in advance of the standard's official launch in fall 2016. We are also collaborating with our clients and partners on other high-performance programs including the WELL Building Standard and Passive House, both of which are gaining momentum in North American markets.
 
Some of our accomplishments include:

• Recipients of the Sustainable Building of the Year award in 2014 by the World Architecture News (WAN)
• Led the design-build team for the 2014 winner of Race to Reduce (Toronto) for greatest energy reductions in an existing commercial building (250,000-500,000 sq.ft.)
• Vancouver Regional Construction Association (VRCA) 2013 Gold Award in Sustainable Construction for the UBC Pharmaceutical Sciences building
• The Canadian Green Building Award for the SFU UniverCity Childcare Centre project in 2013
• 11 awards won, including Gold, at the 24th Annual Vancouver Regional Construction Association’s (VRCA) Awards of Excellence gala in 2012 
• Nominated by the Northern Alberta Institute of Technology (NAIT) in the Environment category at the 2011 National Philanthropy Day Awards
