Environment & Sustainability
Specialist Group’s commitment to the environment goes beyond lip service and bureaucracy. We operate ISO 14001 to enable us to reach or exceed our business targets for waste, productivity, programme and carbon footprint.
We employ the principles of lean manufacturing to all our internal processes to limit non-value add activities in the business. This improves our project delivery efficiency.
Our manufacturing facilities utilise the latest in sustainable building design from a wood waste burner to a low energy lighting system. We also have variant speed drives fitted to our machinery to enhance efficiency.
All our waste material, both at our manufacturing facility and on site, is recycled thus phenomenally reducing the amount of waste we send to landfill.
All of the above is assisting the UK in reaching the government target of reducing carbon emissions by 80% by 2050.
