Building Contractors
We are committed, through WRAP, to halve waste to landfill by 2012 and with over 95% of site staff trained in environmental management, we continue to implement methods of construction which has minimal impact on our surrounding environment.

With registration to ISO 14001, we have developed strategies and used Site Waste Management Plans which develop solutions to reducing negative impacts of construction works to the environment. All operational staff and the majority of office staff have received, or are programmed to receive, training in environmental management.

We analyse and rank risk to assist in developing action plans and consider early options in sourcing to promote FSC Timber, low carbon equipment and minimal packaging waste.

Our current waste partners ensure that the percentage of waste diverted from landfill by skip exceeds 80%. We have recently signed up to WRAP (Waste Resources Action Plan). Through a targeted programme of activities and under an audited measurement regime, we will have waste to landfill by 2012.

Environmental management is also critical to many of our projects where BREEAM assessment is required.

Sites measure water and energy usage and carbon used by workers and visitors to the site, supplier deliveries and meeting attendance. The use of local labour impacts heavily on performance in this area and we encourage this as part of our selection procedures.
