Nedbank 135 Rivonia Road

The Nedbank Head Office campus site, located at 135 Rivonia Road in Sandton is arranged in two Phases and consists of 9 separate buildings. Phase 1 was developed first and was opened in 2003.


Phase 2 was opened in 2011 and was the first Green Star rated building in South Africa, achieving both the Green Star design (5 star) and As-built ratings (5 star).

The Green Star rating of Phase 2 initiated the local development of Green Star compliant carpeting and low-VOC paint, previously not available in the South African market.

The Nedbank property team is committed to a long-term Green Building strategy, focussed primarily on the Green Star Existing Building certification, that will see all Nedbank buildings certified by 2030.
