The Ascott Limited’s Citadines Salcedo Makati was recently awarded the Green Mark award by the Building and Construction Authority of Singapore (BCA). The property underwent BCA’s assessment, which is focused on the building’s sustainable design, construction, and operational practices aimed at reducing the impacts of the building on the environment over the entire building life cycle.
Citadines Salcedo Makati is the first serviced residence in the Philippines to be BCA Green Mark certified.
The BCA Green Mark evaluates buildings to shape a more environmentally friendly and sustainable built environment. The buildings are assessed based on energy and water efficiency, environmental protection, indoor environmental quality, and green & innovative features that contribute to enhanced building performance.
The Ascott Limited has been a strong advocate of green living, adopting a global campaign “Go Green @Ascott.” With the vision of being the leading Green serviced residence company, Ascott is constantly on the lookout for breakthroughs in green technology and practices.
Citadines Salcedo Makati incorporated energy-and water-saving features throughout the property to help reduce carbon footprint. The building was built to conform to global environmental specifications by using energy-efficient lighting, which makes use of LED lights that burn less energy. Apartment toilets feature water-saving fittings such as dual flush toilet cisterns to cut down on water consumption.
Citadines Salcedo Makati is managed by The Ascott Limited, a member of CapitaLand.
