Heathwood Hub

Heathwood Hub

Hub Heathwood is located in one of the fastest growing regions in Southeast Queensland and is positioned perfectly with easy access to existing key industrial precincts.

The site benefits from recent and significant transport infrastructure investment to the Logan Motorway which provides direct access to major transport corridors within 20km of the Brisbane CBD. The 24 new industrial lots are located on a portion of the ~69ha site, of which ~46ha has been rehabilitated and shall be dedicated as Environmental Protection Area, including newly constructed fauna habitat.

Where engineering and authority standards have allowed, recycled products (e.g. pavement gravels, concrete products, topsoil) have been implemented in subdivision construction which represented a significant volume of material being beneficially reused. The same approach will be taken for DAs approved to date for future warehouses, which have been sustainably developed to ensure provision for water and solar energy harvesting as well as soft landscape features with no permanent irrigation requirements.

Built form development by land purchasers within the newly created estate will be governed by Design Guidelines which reflect the objectives of EnviroDevelopment. These enable end users to select design solutions to complement those already integrated into the subdivision, in order to ensure that overall objectives and compliance are achieved.

The Witton

The Witton

The Witton by Mosaic is a $108 million landmark residential development that sets a new benchmark for sustainability-led urban renewal in Brisbane’s inner west.

Comprising 141 premium residences across two architecturally distinctive buildings, The Witton achieved 6-Leaf EnviroDevelopment certification from the Urban Development Institute of Australia—demonstrating excellence across all six sustainability pillars: ecosystems, waste, energy, water, materials, and community.

Its most defining sustainability feature is the rehabilitation of more than 1,500sqm of previously degraded land—over 27% of the site—into a thriving native ecological corridor. Mosaic was not only required to preserve this section as part of the acquisition agreement with Scouts Queensland, but chose to elevate it into a lasting environmental contribution.

Delivering this complex regeneration during live construction presented significant challenges. With excavation, deliveries, and vertical build works underway, Mosaic staged the ecological works in close coordination with contractors and environmental consultants.

The process involved removing invasive species, introducing drought-tolerant native flora, and installing nesting boxes for microbats, parrots, and possums—restoring ecological function and long-term biodiversity in an urban infill context.

Sustainability was embedded across every layer of design and delivery. These features include:

  • Australia’s first carbon-neutral concrete (Holcim ECOPact), low-VOC materials
  • Over 20% recycled content in aluminium and glass.
  • A 226-panel, 99kW rooftop solar system—the largest of its kind in Brisbane’s inner west— while EV chargers, a shared Tesla, and 12 e-bikes reduce transport emissions.
  • The building envelope was designed for long-term performance, including high-performance double glazing to enhance thermal efficiency and acoustic comfort.
  • An external structural skeleton enables deep eaves for passive shading and eliminates transfer slabs, reducing embodied carbon and improving buildability.
  • Over 90% of construction waste was diverted from landfill via a comprehensive on-site management system. Water-saving measures such as stormwater harvesting, drip irrigation, and high-efficiency fixtures further reduce consumption.

Sustainability also extends to operations and community. Residents received education packs at handover, rooftop gardens promote connected living, and long-term in-house building management ensures performance is maintained.

The Witton demonstrates how ecological restoration, thoughtful design, and disciplined delivery can create places that are not only commercially successful but environmentally regenerative and socially valuable.

Peel Business Park

Peel Business Park

Part of the multi-million-dollar Transform Peel project, Peel Business Park, known as Nambeelup Kaadadjan in Noongar language acknowledging the location (Nambeelup) and precinct focus on knowledge sharing (Kaadadjan), is a strategically located industrial precinct in the Shire of Murray, 75km south of Perth.

Offering excellent connectivity to key freight routes, the Park is located minutes from the Kwinana Freeway, and services Pinjarra, Mandurah, Bunbury and Perth’s expanding southern corridor

The Business Park has a focus on building opportunity through industry. Home to the Shire of Murray’s Western Australian Food Innovation Precinct, a variety of local businesses, and Australia’s first Bushfire Centre of Excellence it is a place of productivity; where business, industry, training, research and development come together, invigorating the Peel region.

One of Australia’s first renewable energy industrial microgrids is delivering reliable, affordable power to the Park, with businesses expected to save up to 30 per cent on energy costs

The Business Park has been nationally recognised by the Urban Development Institute of Australia (UDIA) as an environmentally sustainable development. Existing trees have been re-used as natural, engaging landscaping elements within the public open space in Stage 1. Cockatoo nesting boxes have also been installed in North Dandalup as part of the project’s environmental response.

To improve the management of phosphorus in the environment, Phosphorus Retentive Filter Media has been used in the Stage 1 drainage basin. The filter media improved stormwater quality and environmental outcomes for the Peel Harvey Estuary.

You can find further information about the environmentally sustainable development initiatives that have been undertaken and incorporated into the business park here.
