ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY

Where Sustainability Meets Community

At NUQO, we're more than builders; we're community partners committed to enriching lives through sustainable modular construction. 

 

Our modular construction process champions environmental sustainability through: 
 

  • Waste Reduction: Significantly cutting construction waste by over 80%. 

  • Lower Carbon Footprint: Reducing total environmental impact by approximately 36%. 

  • Material Efficiency: Using about 20% less material overall. 

  • Energy Efficiency: Reducing total energy use by up to 50%. 

  • Reduced Community Disturbance: Minimizing on-site time, traffic, and emissions.
