We’ve salvaged interior materials for reuse as we’ve built out new tenant interior spaces, or made way for new developments at Google. Over 1,000 tons of materials have been salvaged for reuse in this way.

We are incorporating salvaged materials in many of our ground-up new construction projects and standardizing the integration of building material reuse into our Bay Area tenant improvement projects. At our Charleston East LBC Material Petal project, we incorporated more than 30 different salvaged materials.

As active members of the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, we plan to investigate and share lessons learned with others, such as we have in our “Accelerating the Circular Economy Through Commercial Deconstruction and Reuse” white paper, in our aim to transform the building industry into a circular economy.
