SUSTAINABILITY
As a multi-use asset, Mailbox aims to reflect this in its progressive ethos. Through creating a sense of pride, belonging
and understanding, Mailbox is an asset loved by its community, be them occupiers, visitors or residents.
To ensure the mental and physical wellbeing of our stakeholders, we have made ensuring the promotion of healthy behaviours at Mailbox a priority, as we make our amenity spaces a sanctuary for recreation and relaxation.
Community is extremely important to us at Mailbox. We pride ourselves on our strong relationships with organisations within Birmingham and beyond.
We are committed to achieving net zero carbon emissions by c. 2030 in the areas of Mailbox that we manage and by 2040 for everything else. We have put into action a roadmap to achieve this, working closely with our occupiers to reach our goals. In 2021 and 2022, we were proudly voted as one of the ‘Top 5 Breathing Spaces’ in Birmingham by the Taskforce for Lung Health, bettering access to nature in the city, but we want to do more to:

We cannot achieve our environmental targets without the support and participation of our occupiers; the importance of collaboration is key to minimising our environmental impact.

We will work with our supply chain and our occupiers to reduce carbon emissions in both landlord and occupier-controlled areas. Significant decarbonisation will be required during refurbishment work, maintenance work and when offices or retail premises are taken over by new occupiers, and changes are made during fit-out activities.
We aim to introduce Whole Life Carbon Assessments (which provide an accurate picture of a building’s total carbon impact on the environment) for refurbishments and occupier fit-out projects from 2025. From 2030, they will become a requirement for all refurbishment, maintenance, and fit-out activities.
Furthermore, we will explore how we can better reduce emissions through our purchase of goods and services, as well as through employee travel.
