Water Resource Management

Ruentex Development’s main operational sites and activities, including office operations, shopping mall services, and construction site operations, all depend on water resources. Mainly concentrated in the Greater Taipei area, water sources come from Taipei Water Department and Taiwan Water Corporation, with intake points located at Xindian River and Dahan River, not from water-stressed areas.

All wastewater generated by Ruentex Development is disposed of in accordance with local regulatory requirements. Water resources used in office areas are general domestic wastewater, directly discharged into the sewerage system; wastewater from shopping mall dining establishments undergoes 100% grease interception treatment before being discharged into the sewerage system; construction site engineering wastewater is treated according to the “Construction Site Runoff Wastewater Pollution Reduction Plan” approved by the Environmental Protection Bureau, processed through sedimentation ponds for sand settling, tested to meet discharge water standards, and then discharged to designated drainage points outside the construction area to ensure wastewater does not harm the local environment.

To reduce water resource waste, all equipment in Ruentex Development’s office areas and department store shopping centers uses 100% water-saving certified devices, with comprehensive phased replacement with sensor-activated faucets. All toilet facilities in construction projects use models certified with Taiwan’s water-saving certification, achieving 100% usage rate in 2024 construction projects. Some malls are equipped with rainwater and air-conditioning water recycling systems, using the recycled water for irrigation of plants.
