WHAT WE DO
Building a Carbon Neutral World
CGF is dedicated to reducing the carbon footprint of the construction industry and advancing sustainable building practices. Through a robust and dependable supply chain, we strive to create a carbon-neutral world by exploring and implementing green building materials and modular construction products. Our commitment extends to fostering global collaboration through technical exchanges with experts, elevating construction standards in regions like North America, and actively participating in the formulation of design standards, specifications, and certifications.
​
At CGF, we are unwavering in our advocacy for innovation, efficiency, and environmental responsibility. Our collaborative efforts with esteemed experts from the UK, China, and Europe underscore our commitment to a global approach to sustainability. For example, we are actively shaping the future of sustainable construction by contributing to the formulation of the groundbreaking 'Climate-Positive Building Design Standard' in China. This pioneering standard, the first of its kind nationally, uniquely focuses on both carbon emissions and climate resilience.
Through such initiatives, CGF is not only setting new benchmarks for sustainability but also actively contributing to a greener and more resilient future. Our ongoing collaborations and contributions reflect our dedication to driving positive change in the construction industry and beyond.
