A partnership between two Exton companies to create a modern new headquarters for a growing global pharmaceutical company has garnered golden accolades in terms of its high-performance green design and construction.
The U.S. Green Building Council has bestowed gold-level LEED certification to the Eagleview project designed by the Hankin Group for West Pharmaceutical Services.
“The West building scored high marks due to its proximity to Eagleview Town Center and the walking trail that connects the two; a green-friendly site design that focused on protecting habitat, maximizing open space and innovative stormwater design; an energy efficient building envelope; and a cutting-edge HVAC design utilizing a chilled beam system,” according to a recent announcement.
“The building also scored a maximum amount of points in the Innovation & Design Process and Regional Priority credits, noting the superior care that was taken in the sustainable design process and assuring the building fit the environmental needs of the region, according to USGBC standards.”
