Greenbors further strengthened its market-leading position in Hungary’s rapidly growing BREEAM certification market in 2025. The year 2025 proved to be a milestone in the history of sustainable architecture and certification systems in Hungary. An analysis of the latest Market Snapshot reveals a trend that is particularly important to us at Greenbors Consulting: the meeting of demand for expertise and quality.
Based on the latest data from GreenbookLive, we are proud to state: Greenbors Consulting is the market-leading BREEAM assessor in Hungary.
General market trends
Between 2023 and 2025, the number of BREEAM certifications in Hungary increased by a total of 143%, clearly demonstrating the dynamic growth in demand for sustainable building certifications. The main driver of this growth was the In-Use category, which saw a 241% increase during this period, while the volume of new construction and refurbishment projects remained moderate but stable.
One in every three projects is delivered with our involvement
When analyzing the data, the first thing that stands out is our dominance in terms of volume. Across the entire Hungarian BREEAM market, Greenbors accounted for nearly one-third (29%) of all certifications. This represents 36 successfully completed projects in a single year, placing us confidently at the top of the rankings ahead of our competitors. This figure is not just an administrative success; it represents 36 buildings that demonstrably operate more sustainably with our contribution.
Balanced between new and existing assets
We are particularly pleased that our portfolio is well-balanced. Our 30.3% market share in the BREEAM In-Use (existing buildings) category, along with our strong position in New Construction (NC), shows that both developers and operators see us as a strategic partner.
Where quantity does not come at the expense of quality
However, the most important message of the statistics lies in the distribution of certification levels. The charts clearly show that the Greenbors name has become synonymous with higher certification ratings. Working closely with our clients, we have achieved an outstanding proportion of “Excellent” and “Outstanding” ratings. This confirms our philosophy: we do not produce certifications on an assembly line. We approach every project with great care and tailored consultancy to maximize each building’s potential.
