Signing of green lease contracts

Green lease is an agreement specifying that property owners and tenants shall cooperate to reduce environmental burden.
Since 2021, Star Asia Investment Corporation (“SAR”) has promoted the incorporation of Green Lease provisions upon signing lease contracts with tenants.

Ratio of green lease (※) 54.3% (As of July 31, 2025)
※Ratio of area leased under green leases to total rentable area.

Environment Preservation Investments

Efficient energy consumption and environmental preservation is being promoted mainly by the Sustainability Promotion Division, by examining the contents of construction works and specification of facilities, and renewing facilities etc. at appropriate timing and adequate specifications.

Efforts in Urban Center Hakata

This property is the first office development project undertaken by Star Asia Sogo Kaihatsu which belongs to the Sponsor Group, and is a new multi-tenant type office building whose construction was completed.
Star Asia Group’s construction management division supervised the specifications from interior and exterior design and facilities to the final finishings, assuming the needs of the tenants entering the property.

Acquired BELS★★★

BCP response (Install emergency-use USB ports)
Use of recycled water, rain water
Energy saving effect by use of automatic dimming lighting
Control humidity by use of desiccant outside air processing equipment
No-water injection humidifying which does not require installation of pipes in the exclusively owned areas

Promotion of LED lighting


【Suroy Mall Chikushino】


【Nishi-Shinjuku Matsuya Building】

From the perspective property operations and management caring for the environment, lighting changed to LED to suppress electricity consumption volume.
