Restricted Materials List Pilot
We are one year into a pilot to accelerate the use of healthy materials as substitutes for materials of concern in our buildings. Five projects are currently underway across our global office, retail, residential, and hotels portfolio.
- Formaldehyde
- Antimicrobials
- Halogenated flame retardants
- Phthalates
- Highly fluorinated chemicals

- 1. GRI Sustainability Reporting Standards
- 2.Select water related performance data from the previous report has been restated due to improved data quality. Updates from previous report data to current data sets are attributed to the following:
- Estimation techniques are used to approximate incomplete or unavailable performance data. Estimations are replaced with actual data when it becomes available and is incorporated in the subsequent report
- In limited instances, minor updates were made due to increased data coverage
