Ecologically Sustainable Design
With resources becoming scarcer and the world population growing faster than ever, green solutions are more important than ever. 

MAC’s play an important role in shaping a sustainable future throughout its work, services and expertise by investing in green technology, green design and internal initiatives. We take measures that reduce any environmental impact and support the community.

The latest green and smart technologies are at the heart of sustainability in design and the operation of buildings and infrastructure.

MAC’s engage in continual research to optimally integrate green technology, including clean power generation, high efficiency mechanical and electrical systems, smart controls, and new construction materials.

These technologies are seamlessly included in the design by using in-depth technical and financial studies and assessing potential risks. The main focus is on how this can provide long-term added value for clients and the community. Green technology is essential to MAC’s dedication to sustainability and extends to our design services and internal efforts.
MAC’s incorporate viable environmental principles and translates them into short-term and long-term benefits. Our sustainability research/advisory team and accredited green building professionals assist designers in sustainable building design and planning, efficient and smart technologies, green specifications, and material selection. 

Our engineers use the most up-to-date software tools to provide solutions that transform our projects into habitable environments that comply with new building codes and rating systems.

Our sustainability team is involved with the Green Building Council of Australia and NABERS. 

We provide our Clients with all required sustainability studies starting from SMP Reports for town planning lodgement to issuing BCA Section J Compliance Reports and Energy modelling.

Sustainability is for the well-being of the community. Our team actively participates in sustainability projects with contractors and suppliers, as well as educational and regulatory institutions.
