ISO 14001 Certification GREEN CREDENTIALS As a part of our Property & Asset Management services, we are also able to offer our clients the opportunity to have their assets ISO 14001 certified. We work with our clients to ensure their assets are efficiently managed in such a manner as to maximise their value. Due to the changing dynamics of world economies and market drivers, green credentials are becoming evermore important to both landlords and prospective tenants. We ensure our clients assets remain viable and competitive by implementing Environmental Management Systems to obtain the ISO 14001 certification and further entice tenants into efficiently run and managed buildings. On successful completion of the ISO certification, we are also able to benchmark the asset against all of our other ISO certified assets. This gives us the opportunity to compare and contrast the environmental impact of the asset and further reduce its energy consumption and consequently the running costs. Our track record in this area is second to none as we recently had the E-LITE building ISO 14001 certified, one of the first in Brussels.

What our clients say about us … CITIGROUP: "Knight Frank provided Citigroup with a full CRC compliance service for an important London asset. They provided excellent service throughout, completing all compliance actions in a pro-active manner and developing a strategy that minimised the client's costs of compliance and maximised the opportunities for tenant engagement." ERNST YOUNG: “We have worked closely with the Knight Frank team on the recent very successful sale of Aviva Tower. This is the culmination of over 18 months of complex work on the White Tower portfolio involving pre-sale asset management, due diligence, strategy and marketing. During this time the Knight Frank team proved their professionalism, reliability and efficiency in delivering an excellent result for our clients. We would continue to recommend their services to others.” KPMG: "I want to take the opportunity to thank you for all your help in both the negotiation process but also post Heads of Terms in pushing the Landlord to progress on outstanding issues where required.
