The construction industry, by its nature, is one of the top users of natural resources. With the growing concern of finite natural resources and climate change, there is an increasing pressure on this industry to minimize their environmental impact.
While there are some challenges involved in embracing sustainable construction methods, there are also a lot of benefits in adopting these methods. The focus on sustainability is one of the significant new developments in the UAE’s building industry, with the country’s 2050 vision initiative aiming to make the country the first in the MENA region to reach net-zero emissions by 2050.
Sustainable construction means using recyclable and renewable materials in building projects and minimizing energy consumption and waste production. The primary goal of the sustainable construction method is to reduce its impact on our environment.
Sustainable construction does not end after the completion of the project, the design of the project itself should have a minimal impact on the environment over the structure’s lifespan. The design of the project should incorporate elements and materials that have a continuous influence on the structure’s environmental impact.
Since its inception over five decades ago, Al Masaood has supported the UAE’s sustainability initiatives and will continue to drive cleaner solutions to achieve the nation’s environmental objectives. Keeping with the Group’s commitment, Al Masaood Bergum operates within the framework of the environmental, social, and physical resources that are at our disposal in order to ensure sustainable living conditions.
The modular building systems are proving to be a sustainable approach to the construction sector, with less time consumption and yielding less waste aside from overall quality benefits.
Through our in-house expertise, we design modular solutions with sustainability in mind. We are committed to using sustainable materials, improving environmental performance wherever possible and delivering a societal benefit through our modular applications. We also maintain ongoing dialogue with our customers to help support their own sustainability initiatives and targets.
Our long-term goal is delivering our products and services with circularity and sustainability driving our approach.
Al Masaood Bergum has introduced latest innovative solutions like Hybrid Modular Solutions (HMS), Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) and Ultra – Fold Prefinished Modules in its endeavour to foster sustainable construction practices. These solutions have helped in reducing carbon emissions and labour requirements during construction.
