HANOI, VIETNAM – Media OutReach Newswire – 12 August 2026 – Vinhomes, Vietnam’s leading real estate developer, is fundamentally redefining the role of ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) in urban development. Moving beyond compliance reporting, the company has embedded ESG principles into every phase of its project lifecycle, from construction and governance to operations and resident experience.

Through two landmark coastal mega-developments, Vinhomes Green Paradise, positioned as the world’s first “ESG++” city, and Vinhomes Global Gate in Hạ Long, which applies the same principles at landmark scale, Vinhomes is redefining sustainable urban development by adding Regeneration and Resilience to the traditional ESG pillars.

This strategic approach reinforces Vietnam’s position within Asia’s evolving sustainable real estate landscape, aligning with global institutional investors’ growing demand for resilient, future-proof assets.

From compliance to competitive advantage, ESG as an operational backbone

Vinhomes has systematically transformed ESG from a reporting obligation into a competitive differentiator. Across its construction sites, the company applies rigorous environmental management protocols long before projects reach completion. Construction sites deploy dust-suppression systems, automated wheel‑washing stations, real‑time emissions tracking, vibration monitoring, comprehensive wastewater treatment and noise control, measures increasingly expected in developed markets, yet still uncommon when implemented consistently at this scale across mega-projects.

Equally, social governance is a priority. Vinhomes invests heavily in workforce development through technical training, strict occupational safety standards, and competitive welfare policies. On the governance front, the company operates under internationally recognized certifications, including ISO 9001 (quality), ISO 14001 (environment), ISO 45001 (health and safety), and SA8000 (social accountability). Standardized construction management, data transparency, and performance‑based accountability further reduce operational risks and ensure project delivery, with compliance extending across the organisation through environmental and safety procedures, including waste segregation, environmental protection measures, and customer response protocols.

Post‑completion, Vinhomes continues to uphold ESG through integrated property management, centralized security, professional facility services, and digital platforms that simplify daily life. Internal surveys indicate that more than 96% of residents express satisfaction with these services, underscoring how operational excellence increasingly forms part of the company’s broader ESG proposition. These efforts have begun earning external recognition: in 2025, Vinhomes received the “Enterprise for Green Community Action” award at the inaugural Vietnam ESG Awards, acknowledging its leadership in integrating ESG principles into both development and operational practices.

Building ESG++ cities, regeneration and resilience as the new frontier

The traditional ESG framework balances environmental protection, social inclusivity, and governance. Vinhomes goes further. Its “ESG++” concept, first embodied in Vinhomes Green Paradise in Can Gio, adds two critical dimensions.

The first is Regeneration, which focuses on actively restoring coastal ecosystems through continuous mangrove reforestation, biodiversity conservation, and environmental education programmes.

The second is Resilience, which entails designing urban infrastructure that can adapt to future climate challenges, including sea‑level rise, rather than merely responding to present conditions.

Vinhomes Green Paradise integrates ecological master planning, renewable energy, efficient water management, and energy‑efficient infrastructure, targeting BREEAM certification for green development and ISO 37122 for smart city performance.

Its social ecosystem, encompassing healthcare, education, cultural venues, sports facilities, and public amenities, is planned to support long‑term community well‑being, not as isolated components but as an interconnected urban fabric.

Governance within Green Paradise is expected to rely heavily on smart-city technologies that optimise transportation, security, public services, and energy management through digital platforms, improving operational efficiency while enhancing residents’ daily experience.

Vinhomes Global Gate Ha Long, officially launched on April 25, 2026, applies the same principles to a different geography. Spanning over 6,200 hectares along the Ha Noi – Hai Phong – Quang Ninh expressway and overlooking UNESCO‑listed Hạ Long Bay, the project is strategically positioned as an international urban gateway, sited directly opposite the planned depot station of the future Ha Noi – Quang Ninh high‑speed railway. Once rail services begin, the line will place Ha Long just 23 minutes from the capital, prompting Vinhomes to envision it as a future “New Ha Noi” beside one of the world’s most celebrated natural wonders.

More than 2,500 hectares of green spaces, waterways, and mangrove systems are woven into the master plan, including 680 hectares of naturally filtered seawater, approximately 200 km of sandy coastline, and over 660 hectares of Globe Ha Long Forest Park. The development is also targeting ISO 37125 (environmental and social governance for cities), further reinforcing its global sustainability credentials.

As Vietnam’s property market enters a more selective recovery phase in 2026, driven by regulatory transparency, disciplined capital allocation, and rising demand for integrated, eco‑responsible developments, Vinhomes’ two flagship projects stand out as benchmarks. By combining resilient planning, operational excellence, and internationally verifiable sustainability standards, Green Paradise and Global Gate are poised to attract keen interest from both domestic homebuyers and institutional investors worldwide.

Ultimately, these projects are not merely large‑scale real estate ventures. They represent a compelling case that Vietnam can actively shape the next generation of globally relevant ESG‑driven cities, where economic growth, ecological restoration, and climate adaptation reinforce rather than compete with each other.

Introducing A New Language of Contemporary Fine Jewellery

SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 12 August 2026 – A new chapter in contemporary fine jewellery begins with the opening of ÉLLILUX at #01-39A, Raffles City Shopping Centre.

ÉLLILUX brings a distinctly European sensibility shaped by elegance, artistry and quiet sophistication. The brand arrives in Singapore with a vision to reimagine fine jewellery that is fluid, expressive, quietly confident and deeply personal for the modern woman.

At a time when luxury is increasingly defined not by extravagance but by authenticity and meaning, ÉLLILUX offers something refreshingly nuanced. Here, jewellery transcends trend. It becomes ritual, self-expression and a reflection of individuality.

Drawing from a design language that is refined yet contemporary, ÉLLILUX’s collections embody softness and strength in equal measure. From the ethereal romance of the Eden Collection, to the understated radiance of Glint, and the clean confidence of the Modern Collection, every piece is designed to move seamlessly between moments, moods and milestones.

Among ÉLLILUX’s most distinctive creations is its 81∞ Collection, a highly personalised jewellery concept inspired by the timeless relationship between gemstones, symbolism and intention.

Through a proprietary curation process, clients are invited to enter their birth date and personal intention, whether it be abundance, creativity, focus, communication, healing or personal growth. The system then identifies a unique combination of gemstones, pairing a birth-aligned Origin Stone with a complementary Amplifier Stone, before matching it with ÉLLILUX’s patented magnetic clasp finished in a choice of 18K yellow or white gold plating.

The result is a one-of-a-kind signature code, a jewellery piece created exclusively for its wearer. No two combinations are exactly alike, transforming each creation into a personal talisman that reflects the individual’s aspirations, character and journey.

Rooted in centuries-old gemstone traditions and esoteric wisdom, the collection celebrates the belief that jewellery can be more than adornment. It can serve as a meaningful reminder of one’s intentions, a symbol of self-discovery, and a deeply personal expression of identity.

At the heart of the 81∞ Collection creation is ÉLLILUX’s patented magnetic clasp, an elegant innovation that seamlessly combines engineering, craftsmanship and symbolism. Designed as the unifying element of each Signature Code, it brings together the chosen gemstones into a singular piece that is both visually striking and profoundly personal.

Equally compelling is the collection’s versatility. Designed to be worn effortlessly across different styles, occasions and stages of life, each 81∞ Collection creation with its unique signature code transitions seamlessly from everyday wear to meaningful milestones. By combining personalisation, symbolism and innovative design in an accessible format, the collection offers a rare opportunity to own a bespoke piece of jewellery without the traditional price barrier often associated with custom creations. The result is a highly personal, highly wearable and remarkably attainable luxury experience.

“Every woman deserves jewellery that feels uniquely hers. ÉLLILUX was created to celebrate individuality, empower self-expression and remind women that their greatest beauty lies in embracing who they truly are.” — Ms Arianna Li, Co-Founder, ÉLLILUX

While ÉLLILUX’s core offering celebrates contemporary fine jewellery designed for everyday elegance, the brand also unveils an exquisite world of high jewellery, a luxuriating collection showcasing rare and precious gemstones of exceptional beauty and rarity. Crafted for collectors, connoisseurs and milestone moments, these statement creations embody a heightened expression of artistry and sophistication.
