During the years, he expanded the activity of BuildGreen across several countries in the CEE region. At the same time, Razvan Nica has been appointed in 2019 by BRE as the first BREEAM International Quality Auditor outside the UK, a position from which he supervises the BREEAM certification process for projects around the Globe.

CEO, IMMOCHAN
BuildGreen demonstrated a constructive approach throughout all stages of the certification process and we were mostly impressed by their excellent command of the technical and financial aspects of sustainable development – always envisioning solutions that fit both the sustainability and the economic requirements and striving to gain the best possible results, which resulted in always exceeding our expectations.
Alex van Breemen
General Manager, Cascade Group
I had the pleasure to work with Razvan Nica [Managing Director of BuildGreen – n.r.], for over three years during the green certification of Euro Tower – the first green certification of a building in Romania. The project was especially challenging and became a landmark, since it marked a premiere on the local commercial property market, changing business practices and proposing a more sustainable approach to building, as we know it today.
