UPHOLDING THE HIGHEST STANDARDS IN ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY

EMAAR IS COMMITTED TO PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT AND ENSURING THE SUSTAINABILITY OF OUR COMMUNITIES

OUR CORPORATE APPROACH IS TO MANAGE THE ENVIRONMENTAL RISKS AND IMPACTS ARISING FROM THE PROCESS OF GOING ABOUT OUR BUSINESS ACTIVITIES. WE SEEK TO REDUCE OUR IMPACT, MITIGATE ISSUES AND BE FUTURE FORWARD IN OUR APPROACH TO PROTECTION AND CONSERVATION.

Emaar’s environmental policy adheres to strict operating guidelines to ensure that we impose minimal impact on the ecosystems in which we operate. We work hard to educate and sustain awareness amongst our employees, contractors, suppliers and communities about the impact our business activities can have on the surrounding environment and place heavy emphasis on the responsible behaviour we expect of them in order to eliminate, reduce and control potential environmental impacts.

We seek to minimise the depletion of both local and global natural resources through optimal use, recovery, reuse and recycling of materials and energy.

Emaar attempts to remove, substitute, reduce and control the use, release and disposal of all hazardous material and waste products through realistic and tangible action in support of pollution prevention. We also strive to ensure that our neighbours, communities, and other affected parties experience the least environmental impact from our activities.

Emaar continually develops, maintains and improves performance by complying with best practice, legal and other requirements, furthering this process through frequent communication with contractors, customers, legislation bodies, environmental experts and shareholders.

Emaar is committed to upholding the highest standards in environmental sustainability across all aspects of our operations. We work in line with the ‘green vision’ of the UAE, working towards strengthening awareness of a greener lifestyle through energy and water efficiency.

We will continue to be vigilant in conserving natural resources, preventing environmental pollution and maintaining the ecological balance for the long-term welfare of our communities and future generations.
