Mat01 Life Cycle Assessment for BREEAM/LEED
Maximum BREEAM Mat01 credits, guaranteed when we engage at Stage 2 or earlier.
What this is
LCA is now a near-mandatory part of BREEAM, with over 10% of total available credits attributed to the Mat01 chapter. When we engage at Stage 2 or earlier, we can guarantee the maximum 8-10 credits. This covers baselining results, presenting alternative options at Stages 2 and 4, and third-party verification.
Why Mat01 LCA matters
Maximum credits
Engaging at Stage 2 or earlier secures the full 8 to 10 BREEAM Mat01 credits.
Specialist support
BREEAM assessors get a partner who understands LCA modelling end-to-end, not just credit administration.
Smooth verification
We prepare evidence the way third-party verifiers expect, avoiding back-and-forth delays.
Better design outcomes
Comparing options early gives the design team real data to make low-impact choices.
