One of CLI’s key sustainability efforts involves creating socially responsible developments through the provision of affordable housing and essential services. The company has developed medium-rise condominium buildings valued at PHP 215 million for informal settlers in Cebu City and Mandaue City, aiming to close the housing gap for underserved communities. These initiatives are carried out in close collaboration with local government units to ensure a smooth transition for families moving into their new homes. CLI also emphasizes sustainable urban planning by incorporating green building designs, energy-efficient construction practices, and the use of renewable resources like solar power and rainwater harvesting.

CLI’s projects are designed to provide economic opportunities and improve the quality of life for residents. For instance, the Davao Global Township (“DGT”) project, which was envisioned as Mindanao’s most sustainable central business district, has generated significant economic benefits for the region. The 23-hectare development is expected to become a hub for business and commerce, promoting local growth while adhering to sustainable principles. The DGT showcases CLI’s commitment to integrating sustainable development practices at the core of its business, ensuring long-term value for its stakeholders.

The company’s focus on environmental stewardship extends beyond construction. CLI actively engages in biodiversity conservation, water management, and waste management initiatives. The company protects a 14-hectare rainforest area and has planted over 10,000 native seedlings as part of its reforestation efforts. Additionally, it employs water conservation measures and waste prevention systems in its projects, with more than 140,000 cubic meters of wastewater treated and 243,000 kilograms of solid waste recycled or reused.
