shapes how we run the business, work with clients, and deliver projects, driving innovation in circular construction and embodied carbon reduction, as well as giving clients confidence in our ethical and sustainable practices,” James states.“ Our sustainability strategy focuses on three pillars: auditing and reuse, operational excellence, and award-winning project delivery. We maintain ISO 14001 Environmental Management accreditation and are a Construct Zero Business Champion, as well as use innovative systems to monitor and report material and waste flows.
“ We embrace circular construction methods and the reuse of materials, conducting pre-demolition audits to assess which materials can be used, using lowcarbon alternatives where possible, and partnering with schemes like Saint-Gobain’ s closed-loop glass recycling to keep highvalue materials circulating. For our project at 163-203 Eversholt Street, for instance, we achieved a 96.57 per cent recycling rate and won the 2023 CCS Leading Lights Award for Plastic Reduction. More recently, The Waterman in Clerkenwell won Most Sustainable Project of the Year at the FIS Contractors Awards 2025. This project saw over three tonnes of glass repurposed, alongside steel, brick, and terrazzo made from waste glass, as well as the successful decarbonisation of four Victorian warehouses.”
