For our clients

Our clients want us to develop new products and approaches that help them minimise the environmental impacts of their projects and which create social value for local communities. Our Sustainability Tiered Offering brings together services and products across carbon, social value, and the environment, helping clients make informed sustainability decisions throughout their projects. 

Our commitment to innovation and modern methods of construction enables us to turn these decisions into partial outcomes.

Reducing embodied carbon

We’re working towards 2050, future-proofing the built environment by prioritising lower-carbon design, engineering and construction. Our PAS 2080:2023-certified carbon management process supports a collaborative approach to reducing carbon across buildings and infrastructure.

Our carbon calculator, design partnerships, low-carbon concrete and new product development are helping to reduce embodied carbon in our projects.

Low carbon concrete used in all new UK projects from April 2023 onwards

Creating a circular economy

We’re developing our approach to circularity, identifying opportunities to reduce waste, reuse materials and make better use of resources across design, manufacturing, construction and operation.

Our circular economy working groups are developing and embedding new initiatives to reduce resource use, while our manufacturing and project teams are exploring opportunities to reuse, share and redeploy materials.

Responsible procurement

We recognise the important role our supply chain plays in achieving our sustainability ambitions. We work collaboratively with our supply chain partners to improve environmental and social outcomes, including reducing emissions, supporting local communities and reducing waste.

Our approach to sustainable procurement is aligned with ISO 20400, with our latest assessment achieving a Leading level.

Supply chain excellence

We work closely with our supply chain partners and elevate the procurement process with sustainable standards, industry partnerships and sponsorships.

• We work with peers and supply chain partners within a number of forums, recognising that working together is the best way to make progress. We’re longstanding members of the Supply Chain Sustainability School.
• In the UK we’re aligned with the ISO 20400 sustainable procurement standard and are assessed using that framework.
