ENVIRONMENTAL

  • Construction activities generate environmental impacts across multiple fronts, including exhaust emissions from fuel combustion, dust generation from site works, and wastewater discharge. The Company maintains a robust Environmental Policy Statement, committing to strict compliance with all applicable statutory, contractual, and other environmental requirements under Environmental Protection Department (EPD) guidelines to prevent or minimise nuisances from air pollution, noise, wastewater, and solid waste. This policy drives implementation of targeted environmental nuisance abatement measures, timely acquisition and renewal of necessary environmental licenses and permits, rigorous energy conservation practices, and deployment of advanced technologies to recycle natural resources : such as processing fallen trees during foundation excavation and site clearance of vegetation, brushwood, or stumps.

  • The Company implements a comprehensive Integrated Management System (IMS) that fuses ISO 9001:2015 (Quality Management), ISO 14001:2015 (Environmental Management), and ISO 45001:2018 (Occupational Health and Safety, superseding OHSAS 18001), with uniform objectives cascading to all departments and personnel. ISO 14001 serves as the cornerstone for minimising environmental footprint, optimising natural resource utilisation, and rigorously monitoring company-wide performance. A flagship achievement is our adoption of the ISO 50001:2018 Energy Management System (EnMS), where top management demonstrates unwavering commitment through dedicated representatives, resource allocation, establishment of energy baselines and performance indicators, tailored training programs, internal communications on energy metrics, thorough documentation, and planned internal audits considering process status, criticality, and prior results. Complementing energy initiatives, we prioritise water pollution control via bespoke site recycling programs featuring temporary drainage channels to capture and reuse surface runoff, alongside waste reduction strategies like structured recovery plans for construction and demolition materials, ensuring adherence to EPD disposal requirements.

  • Given the nature of our foundation and civil engineering operations, construction noise emerges as a key environmental concern, which the Company addresses with ample resources and facilities to fully meet Noise Control Ordinance requirements. We proactively expand good site practices, including deployment of sheet piling noise reducers, strategic siting of noisy equipment and activities as far as practicable from sensitive receivers, throttling down idle machinery, minimising concurrent equipment operations, and installing silencers or mufflers on construction plant. Beyond compliance, the Company embeds sustainable procurement criteria into its policy in line with Buildings Department (BD) directives and vigilantly tracks emerging trends : such as Buildings Energy Efficiency Ordinance (BEEO) expansions effective September 2026 : to deliver swift, effective responses aligned with stakeholder expectations and evolving environmental challenges.

  • Management System (IMS), safety, environmental compliance, and technical competencies. Technical personnel undertake essential Continuous Professional Development (CPD) via prestigious bodies like the Hong Kong Institution of Engineers, complemented by targeted programs such as BEAM Plus Professionals and Affiliates training/examinations from the Hong Kong Green Building Council, and WELL Building Standard initiatives governed by the International WELL Building Institute (IWBI). This multifaceted approach cultivates a diverse, perpetually evolving workforce : central to our success in navigating industry advancements and regulatory demands.

  • Health and safety stand at the forefront of Company priorities, recognising safety and health at work as the first priority of our business performance and integrating safety and health improvement efforts with strategic and financial planning, with ongoing targets to reduce accident severity and frequency through ISO 45001:2018 implementation : an internationally recognised occupational health and safety management system that monitors performance, identifies risks, deploys programmes, ensures supervision for policy execution, and drives continual improvement via audits against established standards. Periodic Safety Meetings and the Site Smart Safety System (4S) assist in monitoring safety standards, while employees complete mandatory safety training courses, permit renewals, and are encouraged to attend seminars covering inclement weather protocols, healthy lifestyle practices, and related issues. Our Safety Policy safeguards employees, business partners, and clients alike, prioritising the prevention of work-related accidents and injuries by championing safer engineering designs, construction methodologies, and innovative training approaches.

  • Our project-based services demand meticulous management, executed via ISO 9001:2015 within the IMS framework, bolstered by specialised roles: the Project Manager assesses projects, allocates resources, develops IMS Project Plans, conducts inspections where required, and maintains a calibrated monitoring equipment list with detailed results and status records. The Design Manager oversees planning, control, and development, reviewing projects and facilitating seamless communication across teams and departments. The Quality Safety Health and Environmental (QSHE) Manager evaluates customer satisfaction through meeting outcomes, complaint logs, and nonconformity metrics, collectively ensuring system efficacy, peak operational efficiency, and exceptional client service compliant with Buildings Department and Housing Authority mandates.
