Social Responsibility and Policies
Our Environmental and Sustainability, Quality and Health and Safety Policies are vital to our project success criteria.
Environmental and Sustainability Policy
Sustainable development and the environment in which people live and work, has a key influence on human health and well being. In order to achieve wider benefits to all concerned, and in developing new premises, we promote positive interaction and look to use new, modern, sustainable methods and designs, which address issues that affect the environmental, such as, energy conservation, carbon emissions, recycling and disposing. We have made that commitment.
It is our aim to improve environmental performance whereby operations and activities are implemented and managed in an energy and resource-efficient manner, in order to reduce detrimental impacts on the environment as a result of developing buildings and ensuring occupiers are also aware of their obligations.
Our policy is to:
- Comply with all relevant legislation both in our work place and in respect of the design and construction of buildings
- Seek continual improvement in our environmental performance
- Contribute to economic, environmental and social sustainability both in the short and long term
This will be achieved by:
- Employing professionals and main contractors who seek to achieve similar goals and have experience in the relevant fields and work to a Environmental Management Standard aligned with ISO 14001 and BRE Environmental Assessment Method (BREEAM)
- Collectively agree objectives and targets to minimise the environmental impacts
- Using products and processes that assist in reducing the environmental life cycle impacts brought about by our collective activities
- Communicate, consult and collaborate with all parties involved in the design development process to realise the sustainability objectives set out in BREEAM document

- Seeking feedback from our customers throughout the process
