Our commitment to the environment

We place great importance on actively supporting a sustainable economy and making a significant contribution to the battle against global warming. Given that buildings are responsible for 30% of carbon emissions and 40% of raw material and energy consumption worldwide, improving energy efficiency in this sector is crucial. Our aim is to significantly reduce the carbon footprint of our buildings, consistently reduce energy consumption and increase the resilience of our portfolio to climate risks. These measures are key factors in the successful implementation of the energy transition and make a significant contribution to achieving global climate targets.
