The IMMUNE Building Standard

The standard has been developed to help buildings including offices, logistics & industrial sites, sports & recreation centers, educational institutions, retail, hospitality and residential properties to re-open and operate safely

The IMMUNE Building Standard is a blueprint for the healthy buildings of the future, leading to healthier people, businesses and economies. As the world’s first standard to address the immunity of built environments, IMMUNE redesigns and reengineers buildings for the post-COVID world and beyond.

Inspired by technologies and procedures grounded in science, this innovative standard that better prepares people, businesses and communities to withstand health threats has the power to transform the future.

What is The IMMUNE Building Standard?

The IMMUNE Building Standard, through the Healthy by Design Building Institute (HDBI) in Brussels, is an evidence based, third-party certified rating for the built environment, focusing on providing building operators with the tools and strategy to monitor, communicate and adjust the health of the indoor physical space, with an efficient response protocol in case of viral, bacteriological, or toxicological events.

The IMMUNE Building Standard is based on a practical investment in a Healthy by Design System (HbDS), incorporating a network of devices and available technologies, specialised equipment, dedicated personnel, and new amenities, promoting operational and health rules focused on the physical space where occupants and visitors interact.

How does The IMMUNE Building Standard work?

The IMMUNE Assessment Scoring Index is comprised of a set of 135+ recommended measures, technical solutions, and facility management practices to certify the level of resilience of a building to present and future health challenges.
