The Communitas Awards were established in 2010 in Dallas, USA. Communitas in Latin means “people coming together for the good of a community.”

UDC won the award for serving the community through their official contact center on The Pearl Island ‘ITTISAL.’ The Communitas Award recognized The Pearl Island community services’ luxury handling of cleaning, maintenance, and waste management. It also recognised the behind-the-scenes operations to maintain the community at a high level.

The SEAL Business Sustainability Award is given away for sustainability, environmental achievement, and leadership. It recognises organizations in four categories — environmental initiative, sustainable innovation, sustainable product, and sustainable service.

UDC won the award for its commitment to sustainability and the success of its environmental initiatives. UDC was honored for its carbon emissions reduction efforts and sustainably-driven projects at The Pearl Island including its 5-year comprehensive strategy for carbon reduction.

It covers the usage of waste management and recycling procedures such as ENVAC, a smart waste disposal system, and the application of energy reservation and optimization measures.
