Sustainability
In our Workplace:
We consider minimising our impact upon the environment in our everyday actions by:
- Avoiding wasting materials, using recycled materials, and recycling our office waste
- Carefully planning necessary staff travel; we have one electric vehicle (EV) with aspirations to increase this
- Promoting environmental awareness amongst employees
- Endeavouring to keep our office operations and energy use lean
In Project Design and Specification:
We are committed to seeking ways to keep carbon emissions to a minimum and to contributing positively to the built environment with ‘green’ eco-measures, whilst delivering attractive and practical projects for our customers.
To achieve this, we:
- Design and specify sustainable buildings
- Specify building materials with the optimum balance between environmental impact, performance and good value
- Include energy saving and energy generating measures in every design
- Raise awareness amongst our customers and construction partners about sustainability
- Encourage the protection and enhancement of biodiversity on site
- Specify sustainably sourced materials, and seek to specify locally manufactured building materials, or those with an efficient supply chain
