Tropicana Corporation Berhad Annual Report 2019

ENVIRONMENT As developers, we acknowledge our role and responsibility in environmental stewardship amongst our business operations and stakeholders. Our focus is to build integrated developments that compliment the natural environment, minimising any practices that may cause a negative impact on the land in which we develop and the surrounding community. We adopted a continuous improvement approach on our energy consumption, water usage and waste production to ensure that we utilise resources more efficiently throughout the Group’s supply chain. Our impact on the environment includes energy usage at our project construction sites, property galleries and head offices. We monitor the energy we consume at our head office via electricity billings that are recorded on a monthly basis. As we are preparing to migrate from our current office building to a new head office at Tropicana Gardens, we endeavour to put measures in place that would accurately track and monitor our energy consumption to generate reliable results for future references. In an effort to promote environmental conscientiousness within our business operations, we obtained the Green Building Index “GBI” and GreenRE certification for two of our key projects in FY2019: Tropicana Gardens and Tropicana Metropark (commercial phase) respectively. We also inculcated energy-saving features that would effectively lower electricity consumption and carbon emissions in our buildings to ensure long-term sustainable energy usage.
