Sustainability in practice
We take our societal and ecological responsibility seriously. Therefore sustainability aspects have top priority in our daily work—not only at our workplace and in our supply chains but also with regard to our products and services. We also initiate and support environmental protection and social projects.

500 grass trees rescued
The Yanchep Rail Extension project in Perth attaches great importance to reducing environmental impact. Before work began, experts from the NEWest Alliance ensured that more than 500 grass trees were removed from the project site. Once the project is complete, the distinctive trees, found only in Australia, will be replanted along the three future rail stations. CIMIC company CPB Contractors is part of the consortium that is expanding the metropolitan public transport system.

Occupational safety in Berlin
In the event of an industrial accident or fire, swift action is required. Doctors, paramedics, and firefighters have to be informed immediately and directed to where the accident occurred. Depending on the construction projects’ size and character, such procedures can be particularly difficult. As a result, the HOCHTIEF team who is working on the PPP revitalization project “Mauerstrasse” in Berlin—where, among others, the “Federal Ministry of Health” (BMG) will move in—has opted to use a modern radio system. It was installed on the building’s power distributors in the emergency stairwells and can pinpoint the location of injured people or the source of a fire on the 70,000-square-meter construction area precisely and without delay. Thus, help can be provided quickly in case of emergency.

A unique design
SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles
The SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles which HOCHTIEF company Turner completed as part of a joint venture for the American football teams, the Los Angeles Rams and Los Angeles Chargers, has a number of impressive features: The gigantic roof whose unusual geometry gives it an ultra-modern look, is the project’s greatest attraction. Its unique design unites all parts of the structure into a harmonious whole.
The roof panels let plenty of natural light into the interior of the stadium, and this transparent material is approximately only one percent the weight of glass. Turner and AECOM, two of the world’s biggest construction providers for sport facilities, worked together on this stadium. The exceptional sport and entertainment venue has been designed to meet the LEED Gold standard for stadiums.
