More sustainable building

If you’re thinking about an energy efficient home, go no further than Green Homes NZ. We’ve been at the cutting edge of sustainable building for years.

The only internationally compliant home builder in New Zealand for Energy Management

Green Homes New Zealand is the only builder in NZ to be compliant with the International Standards Organisation for design and construction of energy efficient homes (ISO 50001)… we’re especially proud of this accreditation, because it means we can promise you a degree of quality and service simply not offered by other builders.

What does this mean for you?

In a nutshell, this compliance means you know what you’re getting – nothing but the best! Your Green home will be audited to ensure every component conforms to strict energy management guidelines.
