In addition to SLE certification, Sobha One has also been recognised with the Whole Life Carbon badge
Sobha Realty has announced that its flagship Dubai project, Sobha One, has been awarded the Green Mark Platinum Super Low Energy (SLE) certification by Singapore's Building and Construction Authority (BCA). This achievement makes Sobha One the first building outside Singapore to earn this certification, highlighting Sobha Realty's commitment to environmentally friendly living experience, said a statement from the developer.
In addition to the SLE certification, Sobha One has also been recognised with the Whole Life Carbon badge in testament to the project's dedication to low-impact development and eco-conscious design.
The Green Mark certification is a globally recognised benchmark for environmental resourcefulness, assessing projects across five critical categories: Resilience, Whole Life Carbon, Health & Wellbeing, Intelligence, and Maintainability. Sobha One's innovative design delivers best-in-class energy performance, achieving an impressive 60% energy savings compared to 2005 standards, a testament to Sobha Realty's ethos of 'Art of The Detail', said the statement.
Francis Alfred, Managing Director of Sobha Realty commented, 'Sustainability is a commitment woven into every aspect of our work. With Sobha One becoming the first building in the Middle East to achieve the Green Mark Platinum SLE certification, we are proud to set new standards in responsible living and low-carbon development. This milestone reflects our dedication to innovation, quality, and environmental responsibility; aligning with global sustainability goals and the UAE's Net Zero vision for 2050.'
This achievement reflects attention to quality, climate-friendly leadership, and design that characterises every Sobha Realty development. Backward Integration model by Sobha Realty maintains complete control over the development process, integrating advanced technologies such as CAFM, Common Data Environment (CDE) platforms, digital twins, and predictive maintenance dashboards.
Sobha One also aligns with climate risk assessments and the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) framework to mitigate and manage climate risks, the developer pointed out. The project's pre-certification will be verified post-construction to ensure compliance with the international sustainability standards. Sobha Realty's dedication to environmental stewardship likewise aligns with the UAE's Net Zero by 2050 Strategic Initiative and global climate goals, while demonstrating the company's leadership and clear strategy for emissions reduction through ESG reports, Greenhouse Gas (GHG) assessments and GRESB benchmarking assessments.
Administered by Singapore's Building and Construction Authority (BCA), the Green Mark Scheme sets a global standard for sustainable design and best practices in construction. These innovations drive energy efficiency, resources optimisation, and long-term operational performance.

Sobha Privy collection redefines luxury living amid Dubai's HNWI influx
Dubai's rise as a magnet for millionaires is reshaping the city's real estate narrative. According to Henley & Partners, the UAE is projected to welcome the highest number of high-net-worth individuals globally in 2025, with around 9,800 millionaires expected to relocate. This influx is accelerating demand for residences that offer more than luxury; homes that reflect stature, legacy, design excellence, and a transformed living. Leading this evolution is Sobha Realty, the global luxury developer renowned for its 'Art of The Detail' philosophy. With the Sobha Privy Collection, the company presents an ode to the 'Art of Sublime' living, crafted for those who seek the exceptional. Described by Ravi Menon, chairman of Sobha Group, 'It's a reflection of our pursuit of purity in design and perfection in detail. We are presenting residences that speak the language of grandeur, stillness, elegance, and enduring value for those who resonate with the extraordinary.' The collection includes signature residences across Sobha's flagship developments. These feature the grand villas and mansions at Sobha Hartland II Estates, sky-mansion penthouses at Sobha SeaHaven, and the iconic 'The S' on Sheikh Zayed Road. The newly launched The S at Sobha Hartland II, inspired by 'The S' on Sheikh Zayed Road, is the tallest tower in the award-winning community and the latest addition to Sobha Privy Collection. With its bold equilateral-triangle form and 270-degree Downtown views, each residence features 4-meter floor-to-floor height and unobstructed glazing expanse that amplifies space, light and views. According to Loai Al Fakir, CEO of Provident Real Estate, who previewed 'The S': ''The S' wasn't just another development; it was a project that demanded attention. From the design to the delivery, Sobha Realty brought something truly refined to the table, and we knew right away it was worth backing. Being part of its success wasn't just exciting; it reaffirmed why we do what we do.' While Huimin Wang, managing director of Fastway Real Estate, said: 'When Sobha Realty introduced 'The S' on Sheikh Zayed Road, it represented a bold vision of luxury; brought to life with unmatched precision and craftsmanship. Now, as it reaches completion, it stands as a testament to that promise and to everyone who believed in it from the very beginning.' As Dubai continues to magnetise the world's ultra-wealthy, Sobha Privy Collection reflects not just the city's growth, but its transformation into a true global capital of refined living.

Sobha unveils ultra-luxury Privy Collection in Dubai
Sobha Realty, a leading global luxury developer, has announced the launch of Sobha Privy Collection, a new pinnacle in ultra-luxury living, rooted in the design philosophy: The Art of Sublime. The Sobha Privy Collection is defined by seven core tenets: expansive spaces, iconic addresses, uncompromising finesse, exceptional service, exclusive amenities, extraordinary privacy, and a distinct quality that sets each home a cut above the rest; all serving as the common thread across each residencem, said the developer in a statement. Marking entry into this elite zone is the new uber-luxe development– The S at Sobha Hartland II. This tower is a striking architectural landmark and the final, tallest reveal within the award-winning Sobha Hartland II masterplan. Inspired by the iconic 'The S' on Sheikh Zayed Road, the new tower is envisioned as an equilateral triangle sculpted at the apex of the district's canal arc, offering 270-degree panoramic views across Downtown Dubai, the central lagoon, and beyond, it stated. Commenting on the launch, Ravi Menon, the Chairman of Sobha Group, said: "Sobha Privy Collection reflects our pursuit of purity in design and perfection in detail. With 'The S' at Sobha Hartland II, we are presenting residences that speak the language of grandeur, stillness, elegance, and enduring value for those who resonate with the extraordinary." Conceived for global elites, 'The S' at Sobha Hartland II is imagined as a rarefied reserve of form, flow, and finesse. Residences begin from the eighth floor upward, preserving uninterrupted vistas and heightened privacy. The S is a 71-storied tower with just two expansive, villa-scale residences per floor. The design embodies a quietly opulent rhythm, featuring a floor-to-floor height of 4m with clear unobstructed glazing expanse, intuitive spatial separation, panoramic master suites, private terraces and spa-inspired bathrooms bathed in natural light. At The S, residents experience luxury from the moment they arrive, with a stunning triple-height grand lobby, and concierge and valet services. Every element is shaped by Sobha's hallmark: an obsessive attention to detail refined over decades of craftsmanship, said the developer. Extending beyond a single address, Sobha Privy Collection comprises a handpicked selection of residences across the developer's most elite developments, including the mansions and villas at Sobha Hartland II Estates, Duplexes and Penthouses at SeaHaven, The S - Sheikh Zayed Road, and now, 'The S' at Sobha Hartland II. Each luxury home is shaped with thoughtful layouts, exceptional locations, personalised details, and a quiet focus on privacy, coming together to reflect the care and craft that define the Sobha way. Reflecting on the exclusive experience at 'The S' on Sheikh Zayed Road, Loai Al Fakir, CEO of Provident Real Estate, said: "The 'S' wasn't just another development; it was a project that demanded attention. From the design to the delivery, Sobha Realty brought something truly refined to the table, and we knew right away it was worth backing. Being part of its success wasn't just exciting; it reaffirmed why we do what we do."

Now, as it reaches completion, it stands as a testament to that promise and to everyone who believed in it from the very beginning." Designed for the global connoisseur, Sobha Privy Collection presents homes as rare and considered, as the lives they are meant to reflect, said the Dubai developer. As the final chapter in the Sobha Hartland II story, The S reflects Sobha's legacy while charting a new path, demonstrating more than traditional luxury by delivering a deeper experience of space, calm, and refined living. With future additions envisioned across waterfronts, islands, and skyline-defining destinations, Sobha Privy Collection continues to shape a modern vocabulary of prestige anchored in the timeless principles of clarity, craft, and The Art of Sublime.-TradeArabia News Service Copyright 2024 Al Hilal Publishing and Marketing Group Provided by SyndiGate Media Inc.
