Sustainability
Design is our lifeline
Purpose-driven by nature. Data-driven by design.
MG2 is committed to sustainable architecture design. We advocate manufacturers for materials that positively impact human health, the climate, the environment, and society. We are mindful the decisions we make today affect future generations. By implementing restorative measures, we efficiently transform the built environment. Our AIA 2030 Sustainability Action Plan lays out our commitment to our planet’s future.
The art of change
Every day we’re working toward building a culture of advocates who implement restorative measures that positively impact future generations.
Sustainable mindset
We’re helping revolutionize the industry through a sustainable design charter that reduces embodied carbon, energy, and water usage.
Ethical sourcing
MG2 is driving a rigorous specification process that limits material selections to those that are ethical, sustainable, and durable.
Our unique offerings
MG2 has worked closely with dozens of vendors to create a rigorously ethical and sustainable specification process for our extensive materials library, holding all products to the highest possible standards for human health, environment, and ethics.
This has resulted in an ability to offer unique services and materials that can be fully implemented into the design process, or independently at any stage of a project.
