‘Green building trend driving premium costs lower’

GROWING interest in the “green building” trend among developers and suppliers is driving the construction premium costs for environmentally friendly projects lower, an official of listed property developer ArthaLand Corporation said.

In an interview last week, Arthaland Assistant Vice President for Technical Service Edgar Sabidong told reporters that the cost of building its ArthaLand Century Pacific Tower in Bonifacio Global City, which is currently ongoing, is “within the controllable, manageable position.”
