Sustainability

We work with integrity, respecting people and the planet

Our Approach to Sustainability

We care about the environment we work, live and play in and are committed to reducing our impact and helping our clients and customers to do the same.

We invest in modern and efficient plant, equipment and transport to reduce energy consumption and environmentally harmful emissions.

Our ongoing investment in efficient waste management plant and processes increases our recycling capacity and reduces waste to landfill.

Our demolition operations are conducted in an efficient manner planned to reduce the environmental impact as far as reasonably practicable within the constraints of the operation with due consideration to the prevention of pollution, whilst maximising the recycling potential through identification, segregation and recovery of materials. Our average recovery and recycling rates of demolition wastes exceed 98%.

Our in house HSQE Department incudes professionally qualified persons with waste and recycling management experience who provide support, guidance and assurance to our operations

ISO 14001:2015

We operate an Integrated Business Management System, UKAS accredited to ISO 14001 for Environmental Management (EMS), ISO 45001 for Occupational Health and Safety (OH&S) and ISO 9001 Quality Management (QMS). This provides the framework to ensure all of our activities are conducted in full compliance with current Regulations, Permit Requirements and industry best practice.

Looking after Our Planet

We strive daily to reduce our impact on the environment. We help homes and businesses to do the same. Our aim is to deliver zero waste to landfill by collecting waste and processing it so it’s useful again. Today, we divert nearly one million tonnes of material from landfill every year.

Looking after Our Communities

We work with communities to alleviate the worries and disruption that our work might cause.

We have a strong and positive presence in our communities – investing time and money in supporting them and raising thousands of pounds for charity.
