As a leader in the global green building effort, Cosentini understands the importance of integrating sustainable building design into our projects. We have always been concerned with the thoughtful and considered use of our natural resources and, in recent years, have been instrumental in our industry’s efforts to organize the issues of resource utilization within the framework of sustainability. We recognize that healthy indoor environments and energy conservation cannot be mutually exclusive and that the ideal green building system promotes efficiency, durability and occupant comfort.
 
Cosentini has played a significant role in the commercial realization of innovative technologies, both in the many built projects we have engineered as well as in our service to organizations such as the U.S. Green Building Council. In fact, many of our senior engineers are also LEED Accredited Professionals who have the experience and knowledge required to collaborate with our clients in the development of successful LEED rated buildings.
