Building Tomorrow Today

Are green building practices successful? Are today’s green buildings effective?

Green building
With so many standards, best practices and compliance norms implemented over the last two decades, have green building practices been successful? Are today’s green buildings effective?

While green building initiatives over the years have been successful in many areas – creating awareness, promoting adoption, and influencing the energy efficient materials market and design practices – they rarely address building operations. Often green buildings are not completely equipped to provide a dynamic response to daily building concerns such as occupant needs, operating policies and space management changes.

So what exactly is missing from today’s green buildings that prevents them from being 100 percent effective? And how can you add in the missing ingredient? Find out here.

Auckland's premier waterfront

Keeping Auckland’s premier waterfront safe for 20 years, and counting
 

The Auckland Waterfront is brimming with sailing vessels, businesses, visitors and activities all year round. However, a thriving hub by the sea needs constant vigilant surveillance that can stand up against harsh weather conditions. We provided a purpose-built surveillance and access control system to safeguard the area 20 years ago and have been steadfastly maintaining and upgrading it ever since. Read more here.
