Some new versions of BREEAM programme are now available: during summer 2025 in the international and British versions the chapter “Hea 02 Indoor air quality“ was renamed in “Hea 04 Indoor air quality“. In the Norwegian and Dutch version the chapter remains as “Hea 02”. The requirements for VOC product emissions, however, stay unchanged.

Our updated test report template already takes these formal changes into account:

• BREEAM International New Construction v7 (Technical Manual SD0673, 2025, Hea 04 Indoor air quality)
• BREEAM UK New Construction v7 (Technical Manual SD0674, 2025, Hea 04 Indoor air quality)
• BREEAM-NL Nieuwbouw v1.0 (Beoordelingsrichtlijn, 2020, Hea 02 Interne luchtkwaliteit)BREEAM-NOR New Construction v6.1.1 (Technical Manual SD0676NOR, 2024, Hea 02 Indoor air quality)
