Buildings impact the environment throughout their life cycle and the consumption of resources. Aedifica is committed to reduce its portfolio’s environmental footprint by integrating environmental targets in its sustainability strategy. Therefore, we increasingly focus on the life cycle assessment of our properties. We analyse our buildings’ life cycle before acquisition or in the design stage of new development projects. Moreover, we perform energy audits on the existing properties in our portfolio. This way, we do not only decrease our environmental footprint, we also make our portfolio more resilient to climate change. Also, Aedifica’s headquarters are located in a BREEAM Excellent certified building and its operations are carbon neutral certified. Aedifica encourages its employees to reduce their environmental footprint through various initiatives, from reducing waste at the office to covering alternative transportation costs by offering a mobility card. LEARN MORE ABOUT OUR SUSTAINABLE BUILDINGS IN THE LATEST CASE STUDIES Aedifica is conscious of its CO2 emissions. We support certified climate projects in order to offset the carbon footprint of our headquarters, achieving CO2-neutrality. For this effort, Aedifica obtained the CO2-NEUTRAL LABEL (in line with the PAS 2060, international standard for CO2-neutrality). This label guarantees that Aedifica is actively calculating, reducing and compensating its local and global climate impact. This label can only be achieved through serious climate efforts. In order to compensate for its carbon footprint, Aedifica supports a CLEAN WATER PROJECT in Rwanda, a project aiming to provide households with safe drinking water sources while reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and the ‘ZAMBIA AGROFORESTRY PROJECT’, which promotes sustainable agriculture and forest conservation in Zambia. Towards our stakeholders Our approach to stakeholders’ engagement focuses on proactively promoting dialogue and good relationships with key stakeholders. Understanding the needs of our diverse stakeholders and engaging with them on the issues they care most about are part of the approach of a long-term and sustainable future for Aedifica. We engage with our stakeholders on a continuous basis through formal and informal contacts. Towards governance Aedifica pursues a business culture that is characterised by honesty and integrity, a sense of responsibility, strict ethics and compliance with the statutory rules and corporate governance standards. And we expect exactly the same from those who do business with us. To ensure our high ethical business standards, we developed policies regarding Sustainability (amongst others). READ MORE ABOUT OUR POLICIES Our commitments are also highlighted by our endorsement of: THE TEN PRINCIPLES OF THE UN GLOBAL COMPACT Aedifica supports the TEN PRINCIPLES OF THE UN GLOBAL COMPACT involving the application of sustainable and socially responsible policies in the areas of human rights, labor, environment and anti-corruption.
