The Edge’s feature highlights how leading Malaysian property developers are embedding ESG into their development strategies. For Matrix Concepts, Group Managing Director Kelvin Lee Chin Chuan emphasises that sustainability should be driven by better design, efficient construction and long-term township planning, rather than relying only on green materials or certifications.

Matrix incorporates solar panels, EV chargers, water-efficient designs and rainwater harvesting, while using system formwork, better material planning, waste segregation and quality controls to reduce construction waste and rework. The company also notes growing customer appreciation for green features as part of a property’s overall value proposition.
