Sustainable Solutions Shaping the Construction Industry

In line with Singapore’s pledge to achieve net-zero emissions, the construction and materials sector is stepping up to play its part.

The objective of this panel discussion is to facilitate a collaborative dialogue on practical solutions and innovative approaches to advance sustainable construction practices, aligning with Singapore’s broader sustainability goals.

The recent regulation from SGX recommends that climate reporting should be mandatory for all large companies. If implemented, these will have an impact across the extensive supply chain that constitutes the built environment sector.

To discuss these issues and share her views on ESG reporting in the built environment sector, we are privileged to have Ms Esther An, Chief Sustainability Officer of City Developments Limited (CDL) and Committee Chair of the Singapore Reporting Advisory Council (SRAC). Ms An will elucidate CDL’s steadfast commitment to environmental sustainability, as evidenced by its annual publication of the Integrated Sustainability Report. She will also share the implications that regulations are expected to have for the built environment sector and its supply chain.

The exchange of perspectives will also touch upon what general contractors and other industry participants are currently doing in the field of sustainability.
