ENVIRONMENT & SUSTAINABILITY
With the opening of Allianz Field, Minnesota United’s physical footprint grew. The team is striving to make its environmental impact minimal through programs focused on sustainability and will work with local organizations to ensure a sustainable future as well.
Sustainability at Allianz Field
Home to Minnesota United, Allianz Field was designed with sustainability in mind. From its lightweight PTFE skin which glows MNUFC blue at night through energy-efficient LEDs to the landscape irrigation system which upcycles storm water, Allianz Field exemplifies modern green-building practices.
