Sustainability

Our sustainability strategy

We have a long tradition of pioneering new ways of thinking about property, innovating to meet the changing needs and demands of our customers and society.

Being privately owned we’re also able to think long term. And we’re proud to be delivering against some of the industry’s most stretching environmental targets and an approach to social impact that focusses on improving real life outcomes for the many communities who rely on our places: businesses, residents, workers and visitors as well as our employees and supply chain. 

Our commitments provide a framework to ensure that every decision we make – about a prospective development, investment or the day-to-day management of a neighbourhood – considers how we can maximise the environmental and social impact that it can have. 

We call this approach People. Planet. Positive.

Environmental sustainability

By delivering against some of the sector’s most stretching carbon, biodiversity and waste goals we’re helping to create a healthier, more positive future.
