Enhancing

Sustainability

The construction industry has a

significant environmental footprint,

contributing to energy consumption,

greenhouse gas emissions, waste

generation, and depletion of natural

resources. Embracing sustainability

practices in construction can help

minimize these impacts, reduce carbon

emissions, conserve resources, and

protect ecosystems, thereby mitigating

climate change and preserving the

environment for future generations.

Sustainable construction focuses on

creating healthier indoor environments

by prioritizing factors such as air

quality, natural lighting, thermal

comfort, and acoustic performance.

By adopting sustainable building

practices, the industry can enhance the

health and well-being of occupants,

leading to improved productivity,

reduced sick leave, and an overall

higher quality of life.

The Indian government has introduced

initiatives and regulations promoting

sustainability in the construction

sector, such as the Leadership in

Energy and Environmental Design

(LEED) certification, etc.

Overall, integrating sustainability into

the Indian construction industry is

essential for mitigating environmental

impacts, addressing resource scarcity,

conserving energy, improving occupant

well-being, complying with regulations,

and meeting market demands. It

presents an opportunity for the industry

to create a more resilient, efficient,

and environmentally responsible built

environment for a sustainable future.

Here is one of the cases

how Hilti imbibed the

aspect of sustainability.

Name of the project: Pune Airport-New

Terminal Building

This system installation does not involve welding,

resulting in a shorter installation time compared

to conventional methods. Additionally, the system is

tested according to seismic guidelines. I wish the best

for Hilti in this field and look forward to collaborating on

building improved infrastructure together.

Problem faced by the customer:

The customer was looking for code compliant Design of Seismic

overhead supports with third party seismic approvals.

Hilti’s expert solution that aided sustainabilty:

Our team provided the customer with cost-optimized Designed Seismic

Overhead Designs, offering valuable support to their project. By

transforming the traditional welded overhead support system into a fully

modular design, we helped the customer achieve significant benefits.

This included reducing the overall support weight, eliminating the need

for hot working, and ultimately contributing to the reduction of carbon

emissions. These efforts align with our company’s commitment to

environmental sustainability and promoting a greener environment.
