Carbon Reduction Projects and initiatives

The following carbon reduction initiatives to reduce our carbon footprint are planned for the current reporting period (01/01/25-31/12/25):

  • Increased utilisation of our off-site pre-fabrication facility. This will reduce the number of operatives travelling to site, reduce the distance travelled by our local material suppliers, and reduce the waste created as we can store any surplus materials and use them on future projects.
  • Review and consideration of the option of introducing hybrid/ electric vehicles where feasible.
  • Replace all florescent lighting with LED lighting.
  • We encourage the use of public transport among our workforce and offer a cycle to work scheme to provide bikes for those who can use to travel to the office etc. We will continue to encourage uptake of the scheme.
  • Increased utilisation of technology to communicate with our stakeholders, clients, suppliers and operatives therefore reducing unnecessary travel.
