Daewoo Engineering has been selected as the recipient of the Jury Award at the 2026 Aju Economic Construction Awards. The company was recognized for its differentiated business capabilities and contributions to enhancing competitiveness in the construction industry.
Founded in 1973, Daewoo Engineering has operated in various sectors, including housing, roads, railways, ports, and power facilities. Since launching its residential brand 'Prugio' in 2003, the company has focused on improving living environments and product differentiation.
The award documentation highlighted 'Dujeong Station Prugio Grand Peak' as a prime example of residential innovation. It emphasized the project's unique features, including a curtain wall design, 'Layered Park' landscaping, and a greener community.
The curtain wall design creates an appearance similar to a glass exterior. Daewoo Engineering presented its integration of exterior design with landscaping and community facilities as a significant achievement.
The company's accumulated capabilities through domestic infrastructure construction and overseas projects were also noted. Daewoo Engineering has participated in national infrastructure expansion through the construction of roads, railways, ports, and power facilities, while also broadening its business scope with overseas plant and infrastructure projects.
Notable overseas projects include the Nigeria Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) Train 7 and the Al-Faw New Port in Iraq, both awarded in 2020. The documentation also included advancements in nuclear and eco-friendly energy technologies, improvements in living environments, and community service activities.
Celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2023, Daewoo Engineering ranked third in construction capability evaluation and continued to receive awards in technology and design. In March, it won the main award at the 2026 iF Design Award, and in July, it received a commendation from the Prime Minister on 'Construction Day 2026.'
