Native landscaping across a My Home Group development

Build, don't burden

Care for the People. Care for the Planet.

We pledge to improve the lives of the people around us, and to protect and preserve the ecosystem we build in. Minimising our carbon footprint is not a campaign — it is how the work is planned, procured and delivered.

A Reduce, Reuse and Recycle principle runs from design through to handover, and we expect the suppliers and contractors who build alongside us to meet comparable environmental standards.

Minimise the footprint at the source, rather than offset it after the fact.

Four Areas We Measure

Our environmental programme is organised around four measurable areas, each with its own targets, audits and reporting line.

01

Waste

Onsite treatment and segregation, with construction debris diverted from landfill and organic waste processed within the community.

02

Water

Wastewater treated and reused for landscaping and flushing, backed by rainwater harvesting and recharge across every site.

03

Energy

Efficient envelopes and equipment, renewable generation, and building energy management systems that keep performance honest after handover.

04

Biodiversity

Native planting, preserved habitat and a dedicated biodiversity park that protects species the city would otherwise lose.

What This Looks Like On Site

The commitments above translate into a defined set of practices applied across the portfolio.

Green Buildings

Green Buildings

Every new development is designed to a minimum IGBC Gold or Platinum rating, with LEED, WELL and TRUE certifications pursued where they raise the standard further.

Design Optimisation

Design Optimisation

Orientation, shading, glazing and envelope performance are settled at design stage — the cheapest energy is the energy the building never needs.

Operational Optimisation

Operational Optimisation

Building energy management systems monitor equipment continuously, supported by regular energy audits and occupant education programmes.

Renewable Energy

Renewable Energy

Solar PV projects across the portfolio, with 120 MW of renewable capacity operating across our commercial buildings.

Water Conservation

Water Conservation

Wastewater treatment and reuse at every site, cutting freshwater draw for landscaping and non-potable demand.

Carbon Reduction

Carbon Reduction

Advanced concrete technologies and lower-clinker mixes reduce embodied carbon in the structure itself, not just in operations.

Biodiversity Preserved

Our 20-acre biodiversity park conserves species that are disappearing from the region — a living archive rather than a display garden.

950Species preserved overall
200+Native rice varieties
400+Medicinal trees, shrubs and herbs
