With changing environmental regulations, construction industry professionals are taking a broader view of the products they select. Improving our carbon footprint and playing a part in helping the supply chain to reduce theirs has always been important to us as a manufacturer. As part of the wider Genuit group, we’re aiming for 62% of our products to be manufactured with recyclable materials by 2025. This will result in a 65% reduction in carbon intensity. Our UK Sales and Marketing Director, Tom Murray, explains how manufacturers such as Polypipe Building Services are supporting the construction industry’s sustainability agenda and move towards building decarbonisation in this issue of Modern Building Services magazine.

3 ways construction companies can give back, in honor of Earth Day! 🌎🏗️ 1. Green Building Practices 🍃 Construction companies can incorporate sustainable building practices into projects, such as using renewable materials, optimizing energy efficiency, and implementing water-saving technologies. This can reduce the environmental impact of construction and promote long-term sustainability. 2. Waste Reduction & Recycling ♻️ Companies can implement waste reduction strategies on construction sites, such as recycling materials like concrete, metal, and wood. This can help minimize the amount of waste sent to landfills and reduce the overall environmental footprint of construction projects. 3. Community Engagement ✅ Engage with your community by participating in local clean-up events that raise awareness about environmental issues and demonstrate our commitment to environmental stewardship.

Some days ago I had the chance of talking about sustainable construction materials, in Frost & Sullivan's Think Tank on the topic. Along with Mahendra C., we went through a wide diversity of strategies that companies are using to reduce materials' carbon footprint, increase the amount of recycled content, enhance their recoverability, and improve building efficiency. In this video, a few seconds glance. You can register and access the complete Think Tank in this URL: https://lnkd.in/dqCr4HKj Brian Balmer Christeena Thomas

Sustainable construction is vital for its broad benefits across environmental, economic, and social dimensions. Environmentally, it reduces energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions, conserves natural resources, and minimizes waste. Economically, it lowers operating costs, boosts property values, and supports local economies. Socially, it enhances occupant health and well-being, fosters sustainable living practices, and promotes social equity. This approach not only addresses the urgent need to mitigate climate change but also offers a pathway to healthier, more sustainable communities. By embracing and advocating for sustainable construction principles, we can collectively prioritize efficiency, resource conservation, and inclusivity, paving the way for a more sustainable future for all.

In a world becoming more aware of the importance of #sustainability , we are at the forefront of revolutionizing the construction industry. 🙌 Our goal? To make our #circularwalls the global standard by 2030. The construction industry faces massive challenges, including significant waste and CO2 emissions. Each year, over 300 billion euros worth of separation walls end up as waste, contributing to more than 1% of global CO2 emissions. 🤯 Our walls are not just #sustainable, but they're economically smart. The high #circularvalue of our walls means that they can be reused several times over, making them a cost-effective option in the long run. We're collaborating with the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, an influential organization led by the record-breaking sailor Ellen MacArthur, who transitioned from her sailing career to advocate for a sustainable future through the #circulareconomy. This partnership highlights the global recognition of our efforts in pioneering circular construction practices. 👊 You can read the full (short) article from De Tijd in the link in comments.
