Integrity Franchising is proud to announce an increase of 20+ builders who have completed the HIA GreenSmart training and are now certified GreenSmart builders.
As the demand increases for environmentally responsible and sustainable homes, our Integrity New Homes group continue to be educated and implement GreenSmart building standards.
Consumers continue to pursue environmentally conscious building practices. It is a move that Integrity Franchising Director Glenn Leet predicted and influenced his decision 20 years ago to be one of Australia's first GreenSmart certified builders. Glenn was also one of the first builders in the country to build a ten-star energy rated home. Being a GreenSmart builder is something Glenn has been passionate about and has been a focus when coaching Integrity New Home franchise owners.
Some of the elements of what makes a house a GreenSmart certified house is correct site orientation to maximise solar design principles, natural ventilation, insulation, thermal mass and flooring.
An HIA GreenSmart® House will:
Improve the water and energy efficiency of the home reducing energy bills and costs
Create healthier homes for occupants
Provide options to make the home more adaptable for all stages of life
Reduce waste from the building process
Improve site management during construction.
