Spotlight on Sustainability: ALCO Investors' Cocktail Reception
January 1, 2020
UNA Apartments, Arthaland’s newest masterpiece in Biñan, Laguna that is on-track to be the first multi-certified mid-market residential development in the country, recently organized a pop-up display of its UNA Apartments Tower 2 Studio Unit at the ground floor of IKEA Pasay City at the SM Mall of Asia Complex. IKEA’s patrons got to experience how UNA Apartments offers a living experience that is one step above with its host of sustainable and wellness features, high quality and superior design. In addition, they marveled at how each unit comes furnished with IKEA products – from the bedroom, kitchen, living and dining area, toilet and bath, and all the way to the utility area.
This green home is equipped with energy efficient air-conditioning systems, energy efficient lighting, low-flow plumbing fixtures which offer residents water and energy savings by as much as 20%. Windows are operable to provide natural ventilation and optimize natural daylight yet all units are air tight to prevent sound and odor transfer between walls. Good indoor air quality is assured by the Energy Recovery Ventilator with commercial grade MERV filters and the presence of a Carbon Monoxide Monitor. Units are also more spacious with high floor-to-ceiling height of 2.6 meters and the floors are made with Stone Polymer Composite (SPC) which make them more durable, water and scratch resistant, and easier to clean. They can also take comfort in knowing their furnishings are sourced from renewable or recycled materials that are built to last. And lastly, you get a fantastic view of this sustainable community made up of 60 percent green and open spaces as all units have their own balcony.
“We are very excited for this opportunity to share our vision for UNA Apartments with IKEA’s many loyal customers. Tower 1 of UNA Apartments has been completely sold out so the unit on display was for Tower 2 and it featured the latest improvements such as a designated space for the washer and dryer in the toilet and bath and the cabinet in the room is flushed to the wall for additional floor space,” said Oliver L. Chan, SVP and Chief Sustainability Officer of Arthaland.
Arthaland, the country’s foremost green developer, and Swedish furniture company IKEA, have been making big strides in promoting a sustainable future. At Arthaland, sustainability is deeply ingrained in every aspect of its business operations and it takes pride in being the first and only real estate developer in the Philippines with a residential and commercial portfolio 100% certified as sustainable by local and global organizations. IKEA, on the other hand, empowers people to live more sustainably hence its focus on affordable, sustainably made products and home solutions that can help people live a more sustainable life at home. This shared commitment has brought the two companies together to help Filipinos live more sustainably at home.
“At IKEA, we want to have a positive impact on people, society, and the planet. Our vision, to create a better everyday life for the many people, is our inspiration,” says IKEA Philippines Country Retail Manager, Gerard Jansen.
In celebration of the 2nd year anniversary of IKEA Pasay City last November, IKEA gave away a fully furnished studio unit at Una Apartments to one lucky customer. Home makeover packages worth up to Php 100,000 were also given away to other lucky customers.
