SDGs Initiatives Created with Shimizu

Realizing Sustainable Communities with Our Customers

We want to realize communities that give all people a real sense of abundance and happiness, sustainable communities that provide hope for the future, and communities where we achieve SDGs (sustainable development goals) together with our customers. These are the aspirations of Shimizu.
Shimizu operates a broad range of businesses, such as real estate development, engineering, facility management, and energy, that extend beyond the confines of the construction industry and possesses many kinds of technology and expertise.
We will combine this “wisdom” with the use of digital technology to create new value to satisfy each customer and user.
