Strategic Actions for Sustainability

We actively pursue initiatives that promote sustainability and reduce our environmental impact. Some of our recent actions include:

+

Electric Vehicle Fleet: We have invested in electric vans and installed electric vehicle charge points to reduce our carbon footprint and promote cleaner transportation.

+

Energy Efficient Buildings: Our focus on creating highly efficient new buildings ensures that our projects minimise energy consumption and environmental impact.

+

Recycling Facilities: We have increased our yard sorting and recycling capabilities, enhancing our waste management and resource efficiency.

+

Cycle to Work Scheme: By forming a cycle shelter and promoting cycling to work, we encourage eco-friendly commuting options for our employees.

Local Supply Chain Focus

Promoting sustainability through local supply chains is a key part of our sustainability strategy. By sourcing materials locally wherever possible, we significantly reduce transportation distances and therefore CO2 emissions as well as promote and support our local economy.
