Environment & Sustainability

Rock Development Group is passionate about sustainability.

Our developments are our legacy for our children and our children’s children. We aim to make sustainable living part of the everyday life of Australians and leave the land in a better state than we inherited it.

We work to reduce our own carbon footprint. Our employees, resources and expertise are all focused on delivering a more liveable, sustainable and brighter future for the community .

To meet our own high expectations, Rock Development Group works with and supports others who share its environmental vision.  We work with leading architectural firms, engineering groups and international suppliers to set the benchmark for sustainable practices.

As part of this commitment, Rock Development Group is the principal sponsor of the Green Building Council’s Green Star Communities rating tool.

In addition to sponsoring the Green Building Council, Rock will be working to receive ‘Green Star’ rating assessments for all new developments and existing properties. Our existing properties will be renovated and upgraded to achieve this goal.

Sustainable initiatives we employ in the new precinct:

• Use of recycled building materials 
• Solar microgeneration systems
• Geothermal Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems
• Electric Vehicle plug-in points
• Integrated rainwater and wastewater systems
• Rooftop gardens
