Link actively adopts green and sustainable building practices across our portfolio. We aim to improve the environmental and social performance of our buildings and to provide spaces that enhance the well-being of occupants.
We target to obtain green/sustainability-related building certifications for all the buildings in our portfolio, and have established criteria for obtaining green, environmental, or health and well-being building certifications based on asset type and investment life cycle.
We prioritise acquiring buildings with existing certifications or put in place post-acquisition asset enhancement and certification plans.
We will obtain green building certifications during the development phase and seek to attain the highest building certification level where possible.
We target at minimum to obtain existing building certifications with a focus on management or energy use to demonstrate our commitment to sustainable building management and operational efficiency. We will also upgrade equipment and service level in our buildings to achieve higher sustainability standards, or complete larger asset enhancement projects and obtain relevant certifications.

Develop minimum sustainability performance standards for each property type and meet these standards by 2025/2026
