The Urban Workshop is a leading edge development and reflects the commitment of ISPT to environmental sustainability incorporating the following Environmental Sustainability features:

• Modern facade that uses glazing and external shading to optimise daylight levels and thermal comfort.
• Modern and efficient fluorescent lighting installation with natural day lighting from the glazed facades.
• Office lighting zones to allow individual spaces to be switched off to facilitate energy savings.
• Carbon Dioxide Monitoring to ensue delivery of fresh air while reducing energy associated with the air conditioning system.
• An automatic building control system to optimise the operation of air conditioning and lighting and save energy.
• Located close to public transport facilities with cyclist's facilities and changing areas to promote cycling to work.
• Low water flow fixtures and a water recycling system to conserve water resources.
• Low emission paints and carpet to improve environmental air quality.

As a result, ISPT has achieved a 4.5 star NABERS energy and water rating for the building (National Australian Built Environment Rating System).

Additionally, a Green Building Council of Australia (GBCA) Green Star Office As-Built rating of 4 stars has been achieved, which represents Australian Best Practice.
