Triumph is committed to erecting green buildings using environmentally-friendly materials and construction methods. In addition to being better for the environment, green buildings provide economic benefits to developers, owners and occupants. Triumph offers a green building solution which meets national Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED®) standards, such as:
LEED® is the rating standard developed by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) for commercial, institutional, high-rise residential construction and major renovation work. The system evaluates and recognizes performance in accepted green design categories utilizing proven technologies. LEED® emphasizes a whole-building approach that provides collaborative and integrated design and construction processes and optimizes environmental and economic factors.
LEED® provides a complete framework for assessing building performance and meeting sustainability goals. Based on well-founded scientific standards, LEED® emphasizes state of the art strategies for sustainable site development, water savings, energy efficiency, materials selection and indoor environmental quality. LEED® recognizes achievements and promotes expertise in green building through a comprehensive system including project certification, professional accreditation, training and practical resources.
Modular building is inherently green, yet many users are still unaware of these benefits.
Because modular buildings are constructed in a factory controlled environment, materials are protected from the environmental elements, reducing the potential for high levels of moisture being trapped in the new construction. This process of construction is a safer alternative to on-site construction.
