Sustainability starts at home. DPR doesn’t just build green, we live it. From eliminating waste in our processes to prioritizing building materials that reduce carbon throughout the facilities lifecycle, we’re implementing innovative solutions to benefit our people, partners, customers and the planet.
DPR's global sustainability group is dedicated to keeping the company laser-focused on sustainability. This commitment includes investment in our own net-zero-energy offices that serve as living labs to tracking our energy and water use, a vital component of our carbon footprint.

The Path to Regeneration is a roadmap for DPR’s vision to reduce carbon emissions. It focuses on a direct data-driven approach, with progress tracked using real-time transparent data coupled with in-house, hands-on carbon sequestering initiatives.
From the inception of DPR, we’ve known that if we take care of our people, good work will follow. Taking care of our people has to start with the spaces we ask them to occupy for work every day.

As a national leader in sustainable construction, DPR demonstrates its commitment through the innovative design and operation of our offices, which we call Living Labs, operating at Net Zero Energy.
These spaces embody our dedication to sustainability, serving as testing grounds for exploring new possibilities in design and construction. Each living lab showcases high performance at competitive costs, innovative renovation strategies across diverse climates, and the power of integrated delivery to achieve exceptional results.

Creating Healthy Spaces
DPR has obtained WELL certification for several of its offices and has been actively improving the jobsite environment for our field teams.
The DPR Office and Jobsite Sustainability Best Practices provide strategies for ensuring optimal building performance through design opportunities to maintain team health. Additionally, we have implemented programs to manage air quality and select materials wisely.
Whether at jobsites or in our offices, our people's health, safety, and well-being remain a top priority. IWBI recognized our commitment by awarding us the 2024 Health and Safety Leadership Award and the Rising Star WELL at Scale Award. We are committed to offering solutions and benefits that create a positive impact.
Our desire to save the planet translates to our projects and jobsites. We take steps from sourcing responsibly-produced building materials to managing jobsite environmental aspects to programs to reduce jobsite waste and more.
But the work isn’t done when we turn over a building to an owner: The lifecycle of a building itself has the potential to leave the deepest carbon footprint. That’s why we counsel clients and provide them with tools to maintain sustainable practices long after the ribbon-cutting ceremony. We don’t blindly recommend green strategies to customers; we consider the social and economic impacts because sustainability goals aren’t achievable without economic stability.
At DPR, we believe sustainability goes beyond just the environment. It’s about building spaces that are healthy for both the planet and the people who use them.
