Amidst the growing global emphasis on green development and healthy living environments, the green transformation of the building industry has become an irreversible trend. Among various standards, LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) and the WELL Building Standard, as globally recognized and authoritative green building certification systems, have established themselves as the “gold standard” for measuring a building’s sustainability and health performance, thanks to their rigorous criteria and extensive international acceptance.
As an industry pioneer with over a decade of dedicated experience in green and low-carbon design consulting, Junye Low Carbon consistently upholds a service philosophy centered on professionalism and innovation. The firm is committed to deeply integrating cutting-edge domestic green and low-carbon technologies with internationally leading standards like LEED and WELL. Junye Low Carbon not only actively promotes the widespread adoption of LEED and WELL certifications within China but also serves as a hands-on practitioner of these building philosophies. It has contributed to creating a series of architectural benchmarks for cities that exemplify high-end quality, health, comfort, and low-carbon environmental responsibility.
Recently, with the professional support of Junye Low Carbon, several landmark urban projects developed by leading enterprises such as Vipshop, Jinjiang Properties, and Guangdong Chengda have successfully obtained LEED and WELL pre-certifications. This achievement not only affirms the exceptional quality of these projects but also further highlights Junye Low Carbon’s outstanding expertise and leading position within the industry.
Vipshop Fashion Center

These include sustainable site development, water efficiency, energy and atmosphere, materials and resources, indoor environmental quality, and innovation in design.
Through the implementation of a series of green design strategies and technological applications, the Vipshop Fashion Center has effectively reduced building energy consumption and carbon emissions, enhanced operational efficiency, and fostered a healthy and comfortable indoor environment for employees and visitors. This achievement harmonizes fashion with ecological sustainability, establishing a benchmark for sustainable development in commercial architecture. It ensures outstanding performance in environmental protection, energy conservation, and occupant health, serving as an authoritative marker of the project’s advanced level of building sustainability.
Chengda Meizhou Prefabricated Decoration Industry Smart Manufacturing Base
Honor Received: LEED Gold Pre-certification
The successful completion of Guangdong Chengda’s Meizhou Prefabricated Decoration Industry Smart Manufacturing Base marks a solid step forward on Chengda’s green and low-carbon development path. With the professional guidance of Junye Low Carbon, this project has also been awarded LEED Gold Pre-certification.
As a modern intelligent base integrating R&D, production, and manufacturing, the project incorporated green and low-carbon principles from its initial design phase. By adopting highly energy-efficient production equipment, optimizing resource recycling, and reducing construction waste, it has achieved green management throughout its entire lifecycle.
The attainment of LEED Gold Pre-certification not only provides authoritative recognition of the base’s green construction standards but will also drive the industry toward higher standards and greater sustainability. It sets a new benchmark for the transformation and upgrading of construction industrialization, demonstrating the robust vitality of green intelligent manufacturing. The eventual full LEED certification will establish a globally recognized leading image for the base in green manufacturing, authoritatively endorsing its commitment to environmental responsibility.
Xiangjiang No.1
Honor Received: WELL for Residential (WRF) Interim Certification
As awareness of residential quality and healthy living continues to rise, the WELL Building Standard has increasingly become a key benchmark for measuring high-quality residential projects. Through meticulous health-focused design, Xiangjiang No.1, developed by Jinjiang Properties, has successfully obtained the WELL for Residential (WRF) Interim Certification, paving the way for final certification. The project comprehensively addresses aspects from indoor air quality and drinking water purity to natural lighting, spatial layout, and community environment, creating a comprehensively healthy, comfortable, and livable ideal home. This achievement sets a new paradigm for healthy living in the high-end residential market, potentially influencing future lifestyles.
WELL for Residential is a health-focused building standard developed by the International WELL Building Institute (IWBI) specifically for residential projects. It aims to holistically enhance occupants’ physical and mental health and well-being across ten core concepts: Air, Water, Nourishment, Light, Movement, Thermal Comfort, Sound, Materials, Mind, and Community. As the world’s first certification system primarily focused on the health and wellness of building occupants, its international reputation and scientific rigor ensure that the project represents leading practices in promoting occupant well-being, serving as definitive proof of its international-quality standards.
