Meeting environmental standards doesn’t need to derail your budget

Designed for sustainability

The demand for sustainable builds and refurbishments will continue as we move towards net zero. Both guests and hotel brands are becoming more sustainably minded — the standards are already high, and they’re getting higher all the time.

At Ica, we help you stay compliant while delivering the commercial results you need. In fact, thinking sustainably at the beginning can dramatically reduce your operating costs — at the same time as protecting your initial budget.

From the latest in fire prevention and low VOC interiors, to how you can reduce water usage, we start with a first-principles approach to design. We often repurpose existing structures, as well as adopting a ‘fabric-first’ approach in new builds. And by using local manufacturers, we can help reduce your embodied carbon.

Our project list includes BREEAM-accredited buildings, with several of them awarded ‘excellent’ status. We achieve this by consistently challenging equipment and material specifications to make sure it’s right first time — for your building, your budget and the environment.
