OUR FOCUS

At Portus, we believe our cities need buildings that are healthier for people and better for the planet. Our focus is on creating intergenerational assets that enrich lives. Buildings that will become great places to live and work, and that generate enduring financial returns for investors.

With 30 years’ experience in real asset delivery, we know the difference between what’s typical and what’s possible. We are committed to creating a legacy of high quality buildings that will make the next generation proud.

INTENTIONALLY
SUSTAINABLE

Creating buildings that have a lower impact on the environment is one of today’s great challenges, and one that we are determined to take on. At Portus we are committed to raising the status quo and improving long term outcomes. In our view, building more sustainably is not just the responsible thing to do, it’s the only thing to do.

Our landmark building at 211 High Street in Christchurch is a perfect example of what can be achieved through smarter choices. Constructed from sustainably sourced mass timber, it will contain 80% less embodied carbon than a similar concrete or steel structure building. Not only is it better for the environment, it’s attractive to future tenants and next generation business leaders too.
