Certification, a lever for land arbitrage

The introduction of enforceable environmental indicators (open space coefficients, green grid, etc.) makes certification essential for development projects. Effinature, prescribed by a number of PLUi, is becoming an essential tool in land-use decision-making: differentiation, prioritization, securing.

Standards that become normative

The recognition of IRICE by COFRAC and its inclusion in urban planning documents (Est Ensemble, Grand Paris Sud, Toulouse Métropole) have seen certification shift from a voluntary register to a quasi-normative reference. The challenge is no longer to align, but to anticipate.

A response to pressure on usage

Faced with the challenges of ZAN and the increasing complexity of land law, biodiversity is becoming a negotiating variable: reconversion, densification, compensation. Certification makes it possible to objectify these approaches and make them audible to local authorities.

Conclusion

Ecological performance is no longer an afterthought. It has become a condition of economic and regulatory viability. Arkoris supports this evolution with certification engineering rooted in the realities of the real estate market.
