The society we live in is becoming increasingly eco-conscious. As awareness grows, more people are actively seeking ways to reduce their environmental footprint, including investing in homes that incorporate sustainable features.
At SDB, we believe that sustainability and well-being should go hand in hand. Our homes are thoughtfully designed, taking the environment into consideration to create a balanced lifestyle that enhances homeowners’ quality of life and peace of mind.
Beyond design, SDB strongly advocates for the adoption of sustainable and eco-conscious living habits. Mindful consumption, proper waste management, energy efficiency, and green initiatives all contribute to a healthier environment - one that benefits both individuals and the community as a whole. By embracing sustainability, homeowners not only reduce their ecological footprint but also enjoy living spaces that are in greater harmony with nature.
This vision is at the heart of SDB’s commitment to creating sustainable living and working environments that inspire positive change for generations to come.

Our sustainability directions and actions are encapsulated in our Sustainability Framework below.
SUSTAINABILITY GOVERNANCE
SDB has formed a Risk Management & Sustainability Committee (RMSC) to govern all sustainability-related matters. The RMSC reports to the Board of Directors on the findings and recommendations of the RMSC for sustainability-related matters.
Sustainability functions across the business operations are assisted by the ESG Working Committee to ensure sustainable practices are fully embedded within every department and business unit.
