Environment

The development, construction and use of buildings accounts for a large percentage of the total energy consumed by human activity.

As a responsible developer, we believe in supporting a sustainable future for our younger generations.

It is our policy to maximise the use of brownfield sites, negating the need to develop in rural, greenfield areas and it is our continuous aim to ensure that we design ‘lifetime homes’.

Stringent waste management and recycling systems form part of every scheme we develop. We actively pursue policies relating to sustainable development through the reduction of our carbon footprint and pollution by auditing the materials we use.

Innovative solutions

At our Spectrum development in Jersey, reconstituted car tyres were used to create communal walkways and rooftop terraces; this means there is no noise pollution from people moving around the development.

Enhanced insulation levels, low energy light fittings and the use of timber from sustainable sources are just some examples of our commitment to environmental protection and sustainable development.
