Modulina Wins the Prestigious ESG Global Award at MIPIM: A Global Milestone for Sustainable Construction

Why This Award Matters?

MIPIM is one of the world’s most prestigious property events, often referred to as the “Oscars of real estate.” Every year, companies from across the globe compete for recognition in ESG categories (Environmental, Social, and Governance) — and this year, Modulina stood out among 50 nominees in our category. The Resource Excellence Award at MIPIM celebrates companies that demonstrate outstanding achievement in how they use, manage, and innovate with natural resources in the built environment.

“Everyone at MIPIM dreams of taking home one of these awards — and this year, we did. It’s not just a win for Modulina; it’s a strong signal that the world is ready for smarter, greener materials.” — Kateryna Pylypchuk, Business Strategist.

Here’s a closer look:

• 90 independent judges from 70 countries evaluated the nominees
• 50 companies competed in our category
• Modulina ranked #1

The judging process was rigorous:

• 90% of the score came from ESG professionals’ evaluation
• 10% from public voting, where Modulina ranked second — proving that our work is appreciated not only by experts, but by the wider community as well.

What made Modulina stand out?

At a time when the built environment is under pressure to drastically reduce its climate impact, Modulina offers a tangible, scalable solution — and that’s what captured the attention of the MIPIM ESG Awards jury.

According to our business strategist, Kateryna Pylypchuk:

“It’s no longer enough to talk about sustainability — it’s time to act. Our material isn’t just eco-friendly — it’s a structural innovation designed for the future. It addresses urgent climate targets, rising energy costs, and the need for healthier indoor living. Those who delay risk being left behind. Modulina is a solution built for 2050 — available today.”

Our use of natural, innovative straw panel materials directly answers the urgent call to transform the construction industry — one of the largest global contributors to CO₂ emissions.

Here’s how Modulina helps lead that transformation:

• Lower CO₂ footprint during manufacturing and construction
• Better insulation and humidity control for healthier indoor environments
• Long-term savings on energy use and maintenance
• Compliance with the EU Green Deal, ESG criteria, and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)

As the EU pushes for a 50% change in the construction sector by 2030, Modulina is already delivering solutions that reflect the 2050 Green Deal vision.

Global exposure

This award doesn’t just recognize our team — it highlights our innovation on a global stage. In an industry where traditional, resource-intensive materials still dominate, being honored at MIPIM proves that sustainable alternatives can not only compete, but lead. It opens new doors for visibility, partnerships, and impact, helping Modulina bring its solutions to markets that are actively seeking smarter, greener ways to build.

What’s next?

This award isn’t the finish line — it’s a powerful push forward. With global recognition now behind us, Modulina is more committed than ever to redefining what’s possible in construction. We’ll continue partnering with architects, developers, policymakers, and communities to accelerate the shift toward sustainable, healthy, and future-ready buildings. Every straw panel we produce is a step toward a greener 2030 — and a climate-neutral 2050. The time to build differently is now.
