SkyCool’s patented technology is based on the old-age principle of transferring heat from hot to the cold ambience. The benefit of their reflective coating is two-fold. First, it acts as a solar thermal reflector and reflects more than 90% of the incoming solar heat around-the-clock. Second, during the night, it acts as a thermal radiator and radiates excess internal heat from within the building into the atmosphere at a specific thermal wavelength. The combination of this reflection and radiation creates a net cooling effect within the building which tremendously reduces the need for energy, the cost savings of which are just phenomenal.

"Additionally, the machines that carry out the transformations of the residual biomass have been designed and created by the founder of the Company," says the company's manager. He is also his father and always thought about the preservation and sustainability of the environment.
In order to guarantee the supply, the company manager says ‘’a foundation called the Green Andina Foundation has been created that helps farmers' associations strengthen and have commercial allies for the complete purchase of production.’’

One fantastic innovation that Victoria Park has created, is what they call the 'food recycling program'. The main idea is to take all of the organic waste that would normally be thrown away into the garbage and place it into a composting bin. The waste is then decomposed and used for soil conditioner on the course! We as the CSR consulting team, would say this is closely related to the 6th, 12th and 15th SDG's. Not only does it reduce their carbon footprint (combating climate change), but it also aids in sustaining the beauty of nature!
