Sustainable Solutions

Sustainable Construction 

The design and construction of sustainable infrastructure is one of the levers with which we are accelerating the transition towards a net-zero world. There is a demand for projects aiming for sustainable certification and we have the expertise to fulfill it. 

As one of the first construction companies to become a member of the Canadian Green Building Council, we have over 190 certified projects to our credit and our expertise in sustainable construction extends beyond LEED projects to Zero Carbon Buildings, Passive House, Green Globes and Envision certifications.

We actively aim to reduce the ecological footprint of our projects. Our sustainable construction specialists and accredited professionals accompany clients, who aim for sustainable certifications, to help define their objectives, collaborate with expert suppliers, and offer optimal solutions based on cost, feasibility, and performance. 

Our group of experts are at the forefront of innovation. They are working with the latest methods, materials, and systems to reduce our projects’ carbon footprints, water usage and waste production amounts to maximize benefits for future users and communities. 

We leverage our expertise in prefabrication, mass timber construction, life cycle analysis, and low carbon materials to shape a sustainable future.
