SINGAPORE (EDGEPROP) - Paya Lebar Green, the upcoming Grade A office development off Paya Lebar Road, has been awarded the Building Construction Authority (BCA) Green Mark Platinum Super Low Energy certification – the highest sustainability rating by BCA.
The development has also been awarded all five sustainability badges under BCA’s Green Mark 2021 scheme in both the New Non-Residential and Existing Non-Residential Building categories. The badges are for Health and Wellbeing, Resilience, Whole Life Carbon, Intelligence, and Maintainability. Paya Lebar Green is the first building to attain all five badges under the scheme.
“I’m glad we have secured this certification by BCA in recognition of our efforts and look forward to helping raise the sustainability standards of both buildings new and old across Singapore and beyond,” remarks Paul Chong, president and group CEO of Certis Group.
Paya Lebar Green is being jointly developed by Certis and Lendlease. A redevelopment of the former Certis headquarters, the project will see the refurbishment of the existing North building along with the completion of a brand new 12-storey South building. The development is set to complete in 2024.
