Ecologically sustainable development
ARPC continues to pursue initiatives designed to minimise waste, conserve energy and minimise water usage in the office, such as using electronic meeting papers, double-sided printing and scanning and energy efficient lighting throughout the office. ARPC’s premise has a NABERS 4.5-star energy and 4-star water rating (out of 6 stars).
The table below lists the strategies used by the building owners and ARPC to assist in reducing its environmental footprint.
