Schofield Gardens is at the forefront of sustainability

As part of its ongoing commitment to sustainable development, ALAND has used a range of energy-efficient materials. Some of these materials are the result of the company’s own research and development efforts. Additionally, room layouts were designed to enhance natural ventilation to cool the building in summer. Other innovations include the installation of several electric vehicle (EV) charging stations, a centralised hot water system and the harvesting of rainwater, which is then used to water the gardens in the complex.

Creating a
sustainable future

To fulfil its mandate for eco-friendly construction, Jasmine also features a number of innovative products that are both durable and aesthetically pleasing, such as the high-grade exterior Dulux paint system and CSR Hebel PowerPanels. These require less embodied energy and produce fewer greenhouse gases than conventional materials.

Such attention to detail is the hallmark of Schofield Gardens which features the liberal use of natural timbers, recycled bricks and textured concrete to create a unique residential complex that is designed to improve with age.

ESG framework and priority areas

1

Environment

Under the banner of ‘Product Excellence and Sustainability’, ALAND is pledged to deliver best-in-class apartment and mixed-use developments which stand the test of time, while also meeting our diverse stakeholder needs including optimising returns and minimising our impacts on the environment. Priority areas include reducing carbon emissions by using solar power, providing communal green space and rainwater harvesting and re-use. Schofield Gardens, our masterplanned community in Sydney’s North-West, demonstrates how sustainable technology can achieve better environmental outcomes, and build greater social connectivity.

2

Social

Our social commitment is divided into two parts: ‘Protecting People’ and ‘Developing People’. We believe that the people who work for ALAND, our contractors and partners, should work in a safe environment, and one that respects human rights. Priority areas include health and safety, and the supply chain. ALAND is committed to providing a diverse, equitable and inclusive workplace in which stakeholders are educated and upskilled in order to achieve developmental, physical, and financial well-being.

3

Corporate Governance

ALAND is committed to acting responsibly across all of our diverse business operations. Our Executive Team provides oversight and policy direction on ALAND’s environmental, social and governance performance. Our strategic initiatives integrate good governance, transparency and ethical practices across all business operations. As part of this process, ALAND has developed clearly defined roles and responsibilities for its Executive Team. Regular communication, education and reviewing processes ensure that ALAND’s ESG agenda is being effectively applied within the company, with performance targets being under constant review.

Schofield Gardens is a highly regarded sustainably-focussed project in Sydney’s thriving North West growth corridor. Bottlebrush was the first stage in the Schofield Gardens masterplanned precinct, launching to the market in October 2019 and completed in November 2020.

A Building Sustainability Index Report that measures the energy efficiency of the project and provides specifications to reduce energy consumption and the overall carbon footprint of the entire development was undertaken. This was to ensure we had provided an environmentally friendly development for the residents and local community.

Community at the heart of Bottlebrush

Schofield Gardens has created six stages in this remarkable community and each stage led by Bottlebrush continues ALAND’s tradition of building in harmony with nature. Each development is set around a central courtyard, providing residents with a leafy vista plus an outdoor recreation space, complete with BBQ areas, playgrounds, herb gardens and fruit trees.

Bordered on one side by a natural bush reserve, residents can enjoy a taste of country life without having to sacrifice the benefits of connected, urban living. Fresh air, sounds of nature, open fields and sunny skies are just some of the unexpected delights of life at Schofield Gardens: don’t be surprised to hear the sound of a kookaburra singing in a gum tree.
