FINDING THE ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY WITHIN UNDERPERFORMING BUILDINGS

Gerding Edlen Sustainable Solutions (GESS) provides complete retrofit services specializing in assessment, planning and implementation of sustainable building strategies for commercial, mid to high-rise residential, institutional and healthcare facilities. We leverage 15 years of green building experience in sustainable design, engineering and construction. With an exceptional reputation for pioneering economically viable and cutting-edge sustainability strategies in the built environment, we are well positioned to meet client needs.

As such, GESS not only focuses on providing best in class energy efficiency and resource conservation solutions for our clients, but also crafts solutions designed to enhance the quality of the user experience. We aim to holistically enhance asset value by assessing all determinants of building performance while remaining focused on economically viable solutions.
