At Aboitiz Construction, our commitment to sustainability starts with a deep respect for the environment. We believe that every project we undertake has the potential to contribute positively to the environment around us. By integrating eco-friendly practices into our operations, we strive to minimize our ecological footprint and promote a healthier planet. From empowering our team members to participate in environment-related activities to complying with environmental laws and standards, we are dedicated to creating structures that not only meet the needs of today but also contribute to environmental sustainability. Together, we can build a better future while safeguarding the environment we value.
Aboitiz Construction is dedicated to implementing effective waste management as part of its sustainability agenda. Through waste segregation, recycling initiatives, and the responsible disposal of hazardous materials, the company minimizes its environmental footprint. These practices are embedded in all project phases, reflecting Aboitiz Construction’s commitment to reducing waste and promoting environmental responsibility throughout its operations.
We placed eWaste boxes for the hauling and recycling of electronic, electrical, and IT waste that is considered hazardous. This initiative not only promotes responsible disposal but also helps protect the environment by ensuring that harmful materials are processed safely and efficiently.
Our ISO 14001 certification enhances the company’s environmental performance and compliance, promotes cost savings, and reinforces our commitment to sustainability. It also provides a competitive edge in bids and fosters a culture of continuous improvement.
One of our key eco-friendly initiatives is the implementation of Materials Recovery Facilities (MRFs) on project sites. These facilities are designed to effectively manage and segregate waste, ensuring that reusable and recyclable materials are properly sorted and diverted from landfills. By utilizing MRFs, we not only reduce our environmental impact but also contribute to resource conservation.
Additionally, we are advancing our efforts through an ongoing project called RoamCycle, which aims to revolutionize waste management with the introduction of portable MRFs. RoamCycle will provide a standardized waste staging and sorting facility for ACI projects, offering an innovative solution to transition from the conventional ‘build and destroy’ approach to a more sustainable and transferable system.
One of the company’s commitments is to contribute to effective waste management. Through the implementation of a policy against single-use plastic across all project sites, we are committed to upholding our environmental sustainability mindset and social responsibility.
With rapid societal development, industrialization has increasingly impacted the environment. In response, Aboitiz Construction remains steadfast in its commitment to sustainability through initiatives such as tree planting and coastal clean-ups. Aligned with our goal of building a better future, we contribute to environmental preservation through these meaningful actions.
Our major tree planting initiative is carried out in partnership with the Mt. Malaraya Environment Protection Council Inc. as part of the National Power Corporation’s Carbon Sequestration Initiative. The planting site, located in Santo Tomas City, Batangas, helps improve air quality, provides oxygen, and enriches the environment, benefiting both nature and the communities that depend on it.
Additionally, our coastal clean-ups, often organized in collaboration with local government units and the West Cebu Estate in Balamban, Cebu, help reduce pollution in oceans and waterways, supporting the health of marine ecosystems. These activities also foster camaraderie within the Aboitiz community, encouraging teamwork and collaboration as we work together toward a sustainable future.
In 2023, Aboitiz Construction achieved 100% compliance with environmental regulations, with zero environmental-related non-conformities (NCs) reported. This demonstrates our unwavering commitment to sustainability and adherence to the ISO 14001:2015 Environmental Management System standards. Through diligent monitoring and strict enforcement of environmental policies across our operations, we continue to minimize our environmental impact while ensuring our practices align with international benchmarks for environmental responsibility.
