Waste Policy
Waste is one of the largest concerns for our company and for the construction industry as a whole. It is our policy to constantly seek ways to reduce waste and increase our recycling levels.
• It is our policy to carry out a site waste management plan prior to the commencement of a project to identify the waste streams that will be generated and to seek ways to mitigate them.
• It is our policy to have heavily packaged products delivered to our offices to enable us to separate the recyclable waste such as cardboard boxes.
• We will ensure that any toxic or environmentally harmful waste is handled with the relevant control measures and disposed of in the most effective manner.
• We will ensure that any waste generated that cannot be recycled is disposed of correctly via registered waste carriers and disposal sites.
