What makes Castlemead the world's first ActiveScore Platinum 100 building?

Under HollenPlus's direction, Castlemead achieved a perfect 100/100 score by implementing world-class cycling facilities, high-spec end-of-trip amenities, and 12 EV charging points, setting a global benchmark for active travel.

How did the sustainability upgrades affect Castlemead's commercial value?

The £3.4 million CAPEX programme, which included the ActiveScore Platinum 100 delivery and reception refurbishment, directly drove a 25% uplift in ERV and headline rents, while significantly increasing leasing momentum.

Did the ActiveScore project also improve the building's EPC rating?

Yes. As a result of the integrated sustainability works, the building's EPC rating improved from E to C, with a clear pathway established to achieve a B rating, ensuring long-term MEES compliance.
