Our commitment to innovation and excellence has earned us recognition as a reliable and award-winning partner in the construction industry.

You said you have been at the forefront of sustainable development in Mauritius. Can you elaborate?
Indeed, Prodesign has played a pivotal role in advancing sustainable development practices in Mauritius. Through our involvement in numerous projects over the years, we have been instrumental in implementing green building solutions that minimise environmental impact while maximising efficiency and occupant well-being. By integrating sustainable principles into our designs, we have helped clients achieve LEED certification for their buildings, demonstrating their commitment to environmental responsibility.

We understand there is a partnership between Prodesign and ENL Property with regards to eco-friendly homes? How significant is this partnership?
This partnership is very significant in that it promotes eco-friendly homes and sustainable building practices. ENL Property's commitment to LEED certification for its projects aligns perfectly with Prodesign's expertise in LEED consultancy. Together, we have worked on several successful projects, including the innovative Sustainable Villas development, which exemplifies our joint dedication to creating environmentally responsible living spaces.
  
What are the key features of the design competition for the Sustainable Villas Project?
This was a ground-breaking initiative that invited architects to present their best ideas for a sustainable and energy-efficient villa. The competition's key features included a focus on net-zero energy usage, resource efficiency, and innovation. Architects were encouraged to consider passive solar design, energy-efficient technologies, and environmentally friendly materials to achieve the project's ambitious sustainability goals.

What is Prodesign's instrumental role in shaping the vision of the Sustainable Villas project?
Prodesign played a crucial role in shaping the vision of the Sustainable Villas project from its inception. Drawing from our extensive experience in sustainable design and LEED certification, we provided expert advice and recommendations to ENL Property, ensuring that the project's sustainability goals were both ambitious and achievable. 

How does Prodesign's expertise in LEED certification complement ENL Property's commitment to sustainability?
With our involvement in the LEED certification of Moka Smart City to achieve their LEED Neighbourhood Development (ND) certification and our in-depth knowledge of the sustainability guidelines for the different precincts, our team ensures that each project meets the highest international standards of sustainability and energy efficiency. Our LEED consultancy services contribute to achieving LEED certification for certain ENL Property's buildings easily signifying their dedication to environmental stewardship.

What are the objectives of the Global Sustainable Development Goals of ENL Property and Prodesign ?
ENL Property and Prodesign are committed to aligning their efforts with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
