Building a reputation with lighter, greener construction materials
Buildo Engineering is transforming Singapore’s construction industry with innovative materials such as greener concrete and cork
BUILDO Engineering has built a name for itself with lighter, greener construction materials that keep buildings cool.
Mike Wong, its managing director, said: “For us, sustainability is an everyday effort, and these materials are opportunities for a greener environment.”
