As a responsible developer, we believe that to achieve sustainability, our projects must be green; in fact, sustainability is the absolute need of the hour and no longer an option.
Ashwin Sheth - Chairman & Managing Director, Ashwin Sheth Group
A sustainable development brings with it long-term savings. For instance, providing solar panels and large windows that allow good light and ventilation to come inside, reduces dependency on expensive non-renewable sources of energy. Similarly, using water efficient chrome plated sanitary fixtures and using the treated water from Sewage Treatment Plant (STP) for gardening, reduces the cost that goes towards water consumption.
Our projects are designed and constructed keeping sustainability as a key aspect of the development. By going green, we can also enhance the customer experience. We use fly ash (a by-product of thermal power plants) and Ground Granulated Blast-furnace Slag (GGBS) in the concrete within the permissible limits. We also emphasize use of locally available natural materials like stone.
Design and Construction are no longer separate disciplines. Today, architects and developers are very conscious of providing the best possible product to the end-user keeping sustainability in mind. Hence, their collaboration is extensive, right from the initial concept of the project to its final construction. In our pursuit of achieving sustainable design, every design element like unit design, circulation, choice of building materials, amenities, service areas, etc. are discussed, debated upon, and designed to achieve a great product.
