Southland Industries prides itself on being a leader in the green building movement. As a Design-Build firm, we've been providing cost-effective, energy-efficient solutions for mechanical systems for over 60 years. We are committed to sustainability as both a service provider and a corporate organization. Before the government and private industry began the shift toward energy awareness, Southland was already examining how our clients could apply energy management techniques to their facilities. Then we leveraged our Design-Build approach to integrate energy efficiency and U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) standards into both new construction and retrofit/renovation projects.

Our commitment to excellence has put us in the forefront of developing the Design-Build-Maintain model. Our green projects were earning LEED certification before it became an industry buzz word. We’ve championed lean construction since its inception as a means of minimizing waste and maximizing value. And that, coupled with our use of Building Information Modeling (BIM), affirms our position as 21st century innovators.
