Hap Seng Consolidated Berhad (HSCB) via its wholly-owned subsidiary Hap Seng Land Sdn Bhd (HSL), has made its way into the Malaysia Book of Records today for the ‘Highest Indoor Green Wall’. Sprouting with lush flora in Menara Hap Seng 3, the indoor green wall boasts a beautiful contrast between the natural landscape and the architectural feat of Menara Hap Seng 3.

The natural daylight brought in by the state-of-the-art green wall, creates a tranquil and nature-infused atmosphere for occupants and visitors.

Designed by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill (SOM), the world-class architects headquartered in Chicago, Menara Hap Seng 3 features a 91.55-metre high indoor green wall, spanning vertically across all 20 levels of office space. Amassing over 27,000 individual pots comprising 10 different plant species, this indoor green wall funnels sunlight into every nook and cranny of the building, thereby creating a lush and invigorating working environment for all occupants of Menara Hap Seng 3. 

The award in recognition of the ‘Highest Indoor Green Wall’ by The Malaysia Book of Records was presented to Hap Seng Realty (Autohaus) Sdn Bhd, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hap Seng Land Sdn Bhd. The certificate presentation ceremony was held in the presence of HSCB Group Chairman, Thomas Karl Rapp; Group Managing Director, Datuk Edward Lee; Group Chief Operating Officer, Harald Behrend, as well as HSL Chief Operating Officer, David Khor and General Manager, Allan Teh. Malaysia Book of Records Brand and Marketing Manager, Aaron Bong, and Senior Research Consultant, Edwin Yeoh, were in attendance to present the certificate.

The award is another feather in the cap for HSL in line with its commitment to sustainability. As described by Mr Allan Teh, General Manager, HSL, Menara Hap Seng 3 was built with nature in mind. “The wall is not only the masterpiece of the building but also sets the tone for the entire building’s internal open areas. This feature illuminates the office levels in Menara Hap Seng 3 and brings light to every discussion and visit,” explained Teh.

“We’re extremely excited to be recognized by the Malaysia Book of Records today, a testament to the Group’s core strength in innovation and foresight in quality and sustainable designs,” shared Thomas Karl Rapp. 

Apart from the Indoor Green Wall, there are other green features within Menara Hap Seng 3, in-line with the group’s sustainability efforts.

Located at a prominent Kuala Lumpur intersection, Menara Hap Seng 3 is the latest addition to Plaza Hap Seng, which comprises Menara Hap Seng, Menara Hap Seng 2 and Menara Hap Seng 3. As all the three office towers are seamlessly connected via pedestrian link bridges and basement car parks, occupants of the various towers are able to enjoy a much wider range of conveniences in the likes of food and beverage outlets, banking halls, medical and dental clinics and business meeting facilities.

Aesthetically designed and functionally laid out, Menara Hap Seng 3 is one of the leading grade-A office buildings in the city centre of Kuala Lumpur with LEED Gold Certification, GBI certification and MSC zone.
