Green Construction Group (GCG) was started as the "Green Branch" of Dhafra International Project Group (DIPG), a First Class Construction Contracting company. As construction and demolition waste accounts for 25% of waste going into landfills, DIPG, seeing a need to change its focus from conventional building practices to integrating sustainable methods and materials, created GCG. GCG is committed to providing sustainability in construction by using environmentally friendly materials and construction techniques.
Green Construction Practices
One of the most important practices that GCG implements is the reuse and recycling of construction material. Through collaboration with the design team and suppliers, GCG is able to plan for waste prevention by considering it during the design process, using sustainable construction practices that reduce the amount of waste, and collaborating with Greentech and Windtech to purchase with waste prevention in mind. GCG implements a waste management plan that incorporates practices such as working with local business owners, and identifying materials for reuse, recycling and disposal. By routinely using green construction methods, clients will see significant savings in their budget, especially in the reduction of wasted construction materials.
Following green construction methods can contribute to obtaining points for the USGBC's LEED certification and other standards of sustainability. GCG's goal is to enable all its clients to achieve those credits on all their projects.
