Our environmental policy embraces two fundamental principles of sustainability: firstly to utilise resources intelligently (thereby minimising harmful effects) and secondly to conserve the benefits derived. Both principles rely upon common sense coupled with a responsible attitude. We are especially sensitive to what we perceive to be our moral obligation to ensure that this planet remains a viable legacy for all.
Sustainability is at the core of our thinking, not a “bolt on” quality introduced as and when fashionable. As such, every project is evaluated in such terms, opportunities for improvement identified, and options presented for consideration by the client.
Only by thorough understanding of available technologies and the scientific principles behind their application can a reasoned and well-balanced assessment of their effectiveness be made. Our research activities are testimony to our commitment to sustainability and embrace earth sheltered structures, solar heating, heat pumps and energy reclamation. |
