TAKING A PRECAUTIONARY APPROACH How do we dig deeper and explore potential health aspects of the materials we procure and use in our buildings? That’s the question that a global team of Oxford colleagues looked at in 2018. The team set a goal of developing a Restricted Materials List, in order to ‘future proof’ our buildings by getting ahead of an important emerging trend. So what did they come up with? Here is the list of 5 Restricted Materials that will be piloted across select Oxford development projects in 2019: (1) Formaldehyde, (2) Antimicrobials, (3) Halogenated Flame Retardants, (4) Phthalates, and (5) Highly Fluorinated Chemicals. Each pilot project team will introduce the list in their procurement process and engage in a dialogue with key partners. After a year, the team will share their experience, including availability of alternatives and impact on performance criteria.

Sydney, NSW – 7 March 2019 – Oxford Properties Group (“Oxford”), a premier global real estate investment, development and management company based in Toronto, Canada, today announced it has launched the disposition process for a collection of office properties from the recently launched OIPP portfolio (“the Portfolio”).

The disposition will enable Oxford, which is the global real estate arm of OMERS, to focus on the strategic assets it plans to hold for the long-term and proceeds will fund capital reinvestment in the Portfolio as well as future growth. To facilitate the process, Cushman & Wakefield have been appointed as lead advisors. Alec Harper, Director, Investments and Asset Management, Australia, Oxford, commented on the campaign, “We have carefully identified a collection of high quality, well-located properties for sale that we believe will be very attractive to the market. This will enable our team to focus on the assets that most closely align with Oxford’s overall global investment strategy. Furthermore, it provides us the opportunity to recycle sale proceeds to fund growth in our existing portfolio as well as future acquisitions of on-strategy, premier assets in Australia’s gateway cities.” Josh Cullen, Cushman & Wakefield National Director, Capital Markets, Australia and New Zealand, also commented, “The properties on offer are high quality assets across Australia’s largest capital cities.
