Our Commitment to Sustainable Development

Chinney Group firmly believes that low-carbon transformation and emissions reduction in the built environment are pivotal to future development. With our geographically diverse operations, integrating sustainability principles into our business practices enhances long-term value creation and competitive advantage.

The Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) Committee, comprising board members and departmental managers from our listed companies, prioritizes and develops comprehensive sustainability strategies. These initiatives are systematically integrated across core functions such as business operations, market expansion, financial planning, risk management, and talent development. Our focus encompasses greenhouse gas emissions, energy efficiency, water usage, waste-to-resource initiatives, resource management, environmental protection, supported by a robust climate risk management framework. The Group also partners with stakeholders to drive green and low-carbon transformation, working collectively toward carbon neutrality. Aligning with UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), we have formulated strategic initiatives to achieve targets relevant to our business operations.

Green Building and Innovation 

Hon Kwok Land has achieved international sustainable building certifications for 36% of its property portfolio by gross floor area. Looking ahead, the Group remains committed to enhancing energy efficiency and environmental performance across our properties, strengthening asset resilience. In the construction industry, Chinney Construction and Chinney Builders are signatories to the Environment and Ecology Bureau's Energy Saving Charter and 4T Charter, committing to set energy-saving targets, establish timelines, ensure transparency of information, and promote joint participation. In the future, the use of renewable energy and low-carbon building materials will be increased, along with the development of green building products and related services.

Green buildings drive operational cost efficiency while elevating construction quality and occupant comfort.
