WELL
International WELL Healthy Building Standard™
The world's first building certification standard that focuses on improving human health and well-being through the indoor environment. It is managed by the International WELL Building Institute™ (IWBI™), a US nonprofit corporation. It was launched after eight years of dialogue, research and testing by world-renowned health science experts and building science experts. It is a system that measures and certifies based on the actual performance of buildings to ensure a healthy indoor environment for users.
The WELL v1 standard extends from the seven major areas that are most directly related to human health and well-being, namely air, water, nutrition, light, fitness, comfort and mind, to the ten major areas of air, water, nutrition, light, movement, thermal comfort, sound environment, materials, mind and community in WELL v2, which evaluates the health attributes of the project. It is independently certified by the third-party certification agency GBCI and is divided into four certification levels: bronze, silver, gold and platinum.
Air
Ensure high levels of indoor air quality through strategic design.
Community
Building inclusive and integrated communities through social equity and civic engagement.
MIND
Promoting cognitive and emotional well-being through processes, design, and strategies.
Materials
Choose safe and healthy building materials to reduce exposure to harmful risks.
Sound
Enhance the comfort of the acoustic environment and improve the user's concentration.
Water
Water quality management and access to drinking water.
The WELL Healthy Building Standard is not only a standard but also a movement, a change in thinking, a lifestyle, and a commitment to oneself, family and society.
