Lapu-Lapu, Cebu — Aboitiz InfraCapital Economic Estates has reached a significant milestone, becoming the first in the Philippines to achieve 5-Star BERDE District Certification across its entire operating portfolio, with the recent awarding of its Cebu Economic Estates. This recognition underscores Aboitiz InfraCapital’s unwavering commitment to sustainability and sets a new benchmark for green, industrial-anchored developments in the country.
Aboitiz InfraCapital’s 63-hectare MEZ2 Estate and 540-hectare West Cebu Estate have each been awarded the prestigious 5-Star BERDE District Certification, completing the green certification of all Aboitiz InfraCapital Economic Estates. Both estates have demonstrated world-class performance in sustainable building practices, earning the distinction of being the first 5-Star BERDE District Certified developments in the Visayas and Mindanao regions.
Aboitiz InfraCapital pioneered this journey to sustainability by securing the first-ever BERDE District Certification for its 1,000-hectare LIMA Estate, setting a precedent with its maximum 5-star rating. With this latest achievement, Aboitiz InfraCapital sets the benchmark for industrial sustainability, becoming the first developer to have its entire operating portfolio BERDE-certified.
“Our vision to pioneer sustainable, industrial-anchored developments in the Philippines reflects our commitment to going beyond compliance and exceeding expectations in environmental performance, health and well-being, and stakeholder engagement,” said Cyel Auza, Vice President for Cebu Operations at Aboitiz InfraCapital Economic Estates.|
