WASTE MANAGEMENT AND MATERIAL USE
The Housing Society intends to minimise the waste it generates by adopting effective waste management solutions centred around reducing, reusing and recycling. Eco-friendly materials and equipment are given priority in our procurement process. To further mitigate our environmental impact, we have leveraged innovative technologies and incorporated industry best practices in our operations and construction procedures.
Project Development
In a project of housing development, efficiency and waste reduction start in the design phase. The Housing Society engages with stakeholders to identify user preferences concerning layouts and finishing, such as conducting surveys among potential buyers. In 2021, we have set up a mock up site and invited industry experts to provide feedback on the universal design elements to be incorporated into our residential units. Delivering on our buyers’ needs and meeting their expectations minimise the risk of future corrective interventions and renovations after the flat handover. During the construction stage, policy measures are put forward to ensure appropriate green practices are taken into consideration when developing properties, including:
廢物管理及物料使用
房協積極採取有效的廢物管理策略，以減 少、重用及回收為主要措施來推動減廢。在 採購過程中，我們會優先考慮環保材料和設 備;亦會在營運及建造流程中採用創新技術 並引進行業的最佳實踐方法，進一步降低對 環境的影響。
項目發展
房協在項目發展的設計階段已將效益和減少 廢物定為工作目標。我們會就房屋設計和裝 修的偏好與持份者溝通，例如跟潛在業主進 行問卷調查。我們於二零二一年設立了示範 單位展覽場地，展示將會套用於住宅單位的 通用設計，並邀請業界專家提供意見。透過 了解置業者的需求和期望，可減少在單位 交收後進一步裝修或修正的情況。在建築階 段，我們訂立了相應政策，確保在工程期間 採取適當的減廢措施，例如:
Timber products used for domestic furnishings like cabinets and doors are sourced from vendors that are certified by the Forest Stewardship Council for their sustainable forest management practices. Timber formwork in construction sites is phased out as far as possible.
家居木器產品(例如櫥櫃和門)均購自獲森林管理委員會發出可持續森林管理認證 的供應商。我們盡可能減少使用建築地盤所需的木材模板。
Site contractors required to formulate waste management plans, set limits for construction waste productions and propose monitoring measures throughout the process of construction or renovation. They are encouraged to adopt industry best practices for handling different types of waste generated on site.
要求地盤承建商制定廢棄物管理計劃，限制建築廢棄物產量，並在整個建築或 裝修過程中進行監察措施。地盤承建商亦採用行業的最佳實踐方法來處理地盤 產生的不同廢棄物。
Sorting facilities for metal, plastic and paper waste are available at construction sites to facilitate proper waste disposal.
地盤設有金屬、塑膠及廢紙分類設施，以助適當處理廢棄物。
