Environmental Policy
Ayala Land, including its subsidiaries and business lines, regards protecting the environment as integral to achieving its long-term goals and is therefore committed to integrating sustainability into its business practices.
Aligned with Ayala Land’s commitment to achieving Net Zero by 2050, the company has pledged to support the Business Ambition for 1.5°C by setting science-based targets for reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions across Scope 1, 2, and 3. ALI commits to reduce its absolute GHG emissions 42% by 2030 and 90% by 2050 from a 2021 base year. This target has been verified and approved by the Science-based Targets initiative (SBTi).
Furthermore, Ayala Land’s construction arm, Makati Development Corporation (MDC), and its property management unit, Ayala Property Management Corporation (APMC), are ISO 14001 certified, ensuring adherence to international environmental standards.
Climate Change and Emissions
Recognizing the risks posed by climate change and the crucial role businesses play in driving climate action, this policy outlines our commitment to managing climate change risks across our operations and developing mitigation, adaptation, and resilience strategies to address them.
Biodiversity Management
The updated policy reinforces our commitment to biodiversity by conducting Environmental Impact Assessments (EIAs) and High-Value Conservation (HVC) assessments prior to project development. We are dedicated to restoring and rewilding natural ecosystems within our landbank through afforestation, revegetation, and reforestation efforts of our carbon forest program while enhancing green spaces and native landscaping within our developments.
We collaborate with environmental organizations, local communities, and social enterprises to sustain and strengthen supply chains for appropriate reforestation practice using native tree species. By engaging employees, customers, suppliers, and stakeholders, we aim to raise awareness and drive collective action for the conservation of biodiversity.
Energy Management
Energy efficiency is both a strategic business decision and an environmental priority for Ayala Land. We strengthen our commitment by expanding our green building portfolio through green certification, investing in energy-efficient technologies, optimizing energy use, and continuously setting and reviewing intensity targets.
Additionally, APMC is ISO 50001 certified, enabling them to systematically improve energy performance, reduce consumption, and enhance sustainability across their operations.
Water Management
Ayala Land’s policies on water management strengthen our commitment to responsible water use by preserving resources, addressing future risks, and ensuring safe environmental discharges. This includes adopting new technologies to enhance water efficiency, ensuring compliance with water quality and pollution standards, and providing all employees with access to safe and potable water, sanitation, and hygiene.
Materials, Supply Chain and Waste Management
ALI is committed to sustainable material use and waste reduction in the real estate sector by optimizing construction efficiency and minimizing environmental impact. Our policies and practices encompass a comprehensive waste management strategy for both non-hazardous and hazardous waste, including construction and demolition waste.
To green the supply chain, we encourage our vendors to adopt sustainable practices in their business and increase the utilization of low-carbon construction materials to reduce embodied carbon. Through these initiatives, we aim to promote circular economy principles and achieve zero waste sent to landfills by 2030.
