Sustainable Construction
Green Building is not the wave of the future, it is now the norm. The majority of our projects today are either LEED certified or contain significant sustainable construction elements. We predict that the trend towards sustainable building practices is not merely a passing fad, but rather a long term development that will only become more prevalent in the industry. At Kaufman Lynn Construction we welcome the movement towards healthier, more environmentally friendly buildings because we know that it ultimately leads to more satisfied clients and building occupants. Additionally, green operations and management can reduce operating costs, enhance building marketability, increase workers' productivity, and reduce potential liability resulting from indoor air quality problems.
Green Building Experience
Kaufman Lynn Construction recognizes the impact that construction activities can have on the natural environment and on building occupants. We take these impacts seriously and are committed to sustainable building practices that minimize environmental impacts, improve energy efficiency, reduce water demand, promote recycling and promote improved indoor air quality. Kaufman Lynn encourages our clients to consider these issues in the design, construction and operation of their buildings and we enjoy working with design professionals and subcontractors who share our enthusiasm for green building.
Kaufman Lynn's staff includes numerous LEED Accredited Professionals and LEED Green Associates who can effectively assist our clients with understanding and implementing the US Green Building Council's LEED certification process. Kaufman Lynn has completed multiple LEED Certified Buildings in South Florida and are well versed in the USGBC's certification process. In addition, we understand and can quantify the trade-offs between the upfront cost and long term benefits of sustainable equipment and materials, including renewable energy and energy efficiency measures. This unique skill set is one of the many factors that differentiate Kaufman Lynn Construction from its competitors.
