MONTREAL, 14 May 2021 – BOMA Quebec was very proud to highlight the environmental commitment of several buildings across Quebec on the occasion of the BOMA BEST® certification ceremony held on May 13 as part of the BOMA Quebec Grand Gala. This virtual recognition event, which brought together more than 250 key players in the commercial real estate sector, was an opportunity to pay tribute to industry leaders taking part in the BUILDING ENERGY CHALLENGE, the BOMA BEST certification program and the BOMA Awards.
BOMA BEST® is a national certification program launched in 2005 by BOMA Canada. This initiative defines realistic standards and practices for the energy and environmental performance of existing buildings. It pursues rigorous management of air quality, energy, waste materials and preventive maintenance. The certification level is based on the score obtained by the building during an inspection carried out by an independent expert.
A voluntary program designed by the industry for the industry, the BOMA BEST program is now present in nations around the world, including the U.S., Mexico and even China! Since its début in 2005 it has been the most relevant program for the commercial real estate industry, as evidenced by this international development. There are some 3026 certified buildings across Canada, 413 of them in Quebec.
