MPCALA Holdings Inc. (MPHI), a subsidiary of Metro Pacific Tollways Corporation (MPTC) and the concessionaire of the Cavite-Laguna Expressway (CALAX), has been recognized by the City Government of Santa Rosa, Laguna, for its unwavering commitment to environmental sustainability. This marks the fourth consecutive year the company has been honored by the local government.

The Guarantee the Restoration of the Environment & our Ecological Niche (GREEN) Awards is the city’s annual recognition program that honors organizations, institutions, and individuals for their significant contributions to environmental protection and sustainability.

This year, CALAX received three major awards in recognition of its green initiatives:

• Sustainable Development Partner: Recognizing MPCALA’s contributions to environmental sustainability through its active participation in various coastal clean-up initiatives that help preserve ecosystems, reduce pollution in Laguna Lake, and support climate change mitigation efforts.
• Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency Partner: Awarded for the company’s excellence in reducing energy consumption, promoting renewable energy solutions, and implementing energy efficiency initiatives across its offices, toll plazas, and facilities.
• Earth Hour Advocate: Presented for the company’s active participation in the annual global Earth Hour movement and its continued efforts to promote energy conservation and environmental awareness.

The awards were presented by the City Government of Santa Rosa and received by representatives of MPCALA.

“We are deeply honored to receive this recognition from the City Government of Santa Rosa. These awards reflect our commitment to integrating sustainability into every aspect of our operations, from building greener infrastructure to adopting environmentally responsible practices. As we continue to expand CALAX, we remain dedicated to proving that infrastructure development and environmental stewardship can go hand in hand,” said MPHI President and General Manager Andrew B. Pangilinan.

CALAX is a 44.6-kilometer expressway connecting the provinces of Cavite and Laguna. Once completed, it is expected to serve approximately 95,000 motorists daily. Currently, its operational segments span from Biñan, Laguna to General Trias, Cavite, significantly reducing travel time from an hour to just 26 minutes.

Beyond improving mobility, CALAX also advances environmental sustainability by helping reduce fuel consumption and vehicle emissions through shorter travel times. Its green initiatives include the integration of solar power systems, rainwater harvesting facilities, and the progressive transition of its corporate fleet to electric vehicles (EVs), reinforcing the company’s commitment to responsible and sustainable expressway operations.
