We are pleased to announce that One Click LCA, the easy to use LCA software for construction, has now been officially approved by BRE as a compliant LCA tool for BREEAM Europe Commercial 2009 and BREEAM International Bespoke 2010.

Additionally, One Click LCA can be used to deliver LCA credits for BREEAM-SE and BREEAM-NOR as well as for LEED certification projects globally. For LEED v4, it can be used to deliver MRc: Building Life-Cycle Impact Reduction credits, and for LEED New Construction v3/v2009 ((BD+C)) the pilot credit MRpc63.
