Singapore Total waste generated at Singapore properties was 9,949 tonnes, the majority of which was incinerated at waste-toenergy plants. This represents a 7.9% increase from FY 2024, which is attributable to increased activities from tenant turnover in FY 2025. This also causes 5.4% increase in waste intensity to 4.7 kg/sq m. Australia Australia properties generated 265 tonnes of waste in FY 2025, an increase of 14.7% from FY 2024. The increase in FY 2025 is caused by an increase in occupancy, fitouts and refurbishments during the year. Approximate 20.5% of the total waste is recycled, while the majority of the waste was sent to landfills. Waste Management / Circularity CLAR’s Impact Given limited landfill capacity and the environmental impact of incineration (global warming, air pollution), responsible waste management is crucial. CLAR supports CLI’s Net Zero target by actively managing and reducing waste. In FY 2025, circularity was recognised as a material ESG issue, reinforcing the adoption of circularity principles and the 3R concept (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle). Across all properties, CLAR implements waste management strategies to minimise generation and maximise recycling rates, including engaging tenants and building users to encourage mindful resource use. Waste generated by CLAR consists of only non-hazardous waste, and all waste is disposed in accordance with local laws and regulation. Sustainable waste treatment methods are also adopted at some of CLAR’s properties. In Singapore, waste is treated at waste‑to‑energy incineration plants before the ash is sent to landfills. This approach enables energy recovery and minimises methane emissions associated with direct landfilling. In Australia, waste is being diverted to composting programmes, whereby organic waste is being repurposed into valuable land resources such as fertilisers. Commitment and Progress Waste Generation and Intensity CLAR generated a total of 11,605 tonnes of waste in FY 2025. Total waste intensity was 4.9 kg/sq m. These represent an increase of 6.7% and 4.7% from FY 2024 respectively. United States Total waste from US properties decreased 2.9% in FY 2025, totalling 1,296 tonnes. This was due to a decrease in occupancy as well as improved data collection method for some properties in FY 2025. However, the reduction in occupancy also led to an overall 1.3% increase in waste intensity, to 10.2 kg/sq m. United Kingdom and Europe Properties in United Kingdom and Europe generated 95 tonnes of waste in FY 2025. The 7.6% increase from FY 2024 is due to retrofitting at Croydon and Building Management System (BMS) replacement works at Chess Building and Croydon.
