DLF Cybercity Hyderabad
Founded in 1946, DLF Cyber City Developers Ltd (DCCDL) is a real estate firm at the forefront of green building practices in India. Recognised as a World Leader in LEED Zero Certifications and having achieved LEED certifications for existing buildings and spaces at the prestigious Greenbuild International Conference & Expo, DCCDL’s commitment to sustainability is evident in every project.
One such project is DLF Cybercity Hyderabad, India’s first LEED Zero Waste-certified workplace, lauded by the US Green Building Council (USGBC). In a testament to its excellence, the British Safety Council awarded 18 Swords of Honour to the company in 2022, setting a global record for the highest number ever achieved in a single year.
DCCDL’s dedication to environmental sustainability shines through its impressive ESG environmental programmes. They harvest a staggering 550,000 kilolitres of rainwater annually, reducing freshwater demand by a significant 50% through efficient recycling. This initiative has culminated in the achievement of LEED Zero Water certification for their entire portfolio, solidifying their commitment to reducing their environmental impact.
It’s also worth noting that the company optimises cooling towers for significant energy savings. On the materials front, they embrace sustainable choices like recycled steel, high-fly ash content cement, and prefabricated structures. This holistic approach ensures resource efficiency and environmental responsibility throughout the building lifecycle.
Beyond earning acclaim for its dedication to sustainability, the developer is also renowned for its innovation. One standout project is DLF Cyberpark, a mixed-use marvel spread across 12 acres on Gurugram’s NH8 road. This architectural masterpiece seamlessly blends form and function, offering a world-class contemporary structure and a future-ready workspace.
The developer was named winner, Best Sustainable Developer, Special Recognition in ESG, and Special Recognition in Sustainable Design and Construction at the 4th PropertyGuru Asia Property Awards (India).
