Sustainability
COMMITMENT
Today’s logistics real estate market demands buildings with a modern and functional design based not only on architectural quality but also on energy efficiency. To meet this challenge, Green Logistics by Aquila Group offers an optimal solution to achieve both criteria, drawing on its considerable technical know-how and experience in sustainable assets management.
Sustainability lies at the heart of everything Green Logistics by Aquila Group does. All of the company’s projects are developed in the most effective, sustainable and energy-efficient way possible.


HOW DO WE OFFSET A PROJECT’S CARBON FOOTPRINT?
Before offsetting, we first focus on reducing the carbon footprint caused by our projects by:
- Carrying out a detailed lifecycle analysis of the materials used, and considering all the processes involved including manufacturing, extraction, construction and treatment at the end of a project’s lifecycle.
- Promoting the use of sustainable construction procedures.
- Using materials from local sources.
- Using recycled materials.
- Reducing the amounts of construction waste.
Once we have estimated the total embodied carbon of an asset, we offset it by:


Promoting renewable energy sources (solar photovoltaic plants) for assets in construction


Investing in projects globally that will result in the avoidance of an equivalent amount of CO2 emissions
In addition, we offer our clients support in offsetting their operational carbon footprints through specialised companies within Aquila Group.
By offsetting carbon footprints, Green Logistics by Aquila Group contributes to the decarbonisation of the planet, compensating for the impact of the construction of warehouses and helping clients to achieve their sustainability goals.
LOCAL ENGAGEMENT
We recognise the exponential growth of the logistics real estate market also has an impact on local communities. We are committed to establishing lasting relationships and providing support for and giving visibility to initiatives in the areas in which we operate.
By promoting and enabling the creation of sustainable value for society, we also contribute to the sustainability goals of the United Nations:


Achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls.
