The product’s leadership examples showcased its impact on projects such as Citrus Waskaduwa Beach Resort, Park Lane Residencies Homagama, and New Cargills Food City Branches. Its utilisation on these properties, from exterior walls to blind walls and energy-sensitive areas, exemplifies its versatility and effectiveness.
“We are thrilled to receive the CIOB Green Award Gold recognition, which underscores our commitment to transforming the construction industry towards sustainability,” said Macksons Paint Lanka Sales General Manager Mihiran Opatha.
