Our Mission for a Sustainable Future
Reducing Emissions and Environmental Impact
Carbon Management
Carbon management is a crucial aspect of sustainable construction. At MLS, we implement measures to reduce our carbon footprint, such as using low-emission vehicles and equipment, optimising our transport routes, and minimising waste. We also use sustainable materials whenever possible, such as recycled aggregates and sustainable timber.
We recognise the importance of resource and energy efficiency in sustainable construction. We aim to reduce our energy consumption by using energy-efficient equipment, implementing energy-saving measures in our offices and yards, and promoting sustainable practices among our staff.
Resource, Pollution & Energy Efficiency
We recognise the importance of resource and energy efficiency in sustainable construction. We aim to reduce our energy consumption by using energy-efficient equipment, implementing energy-saving measures in our offices and yards, and promoting sustainable practices among our staff.
We also take pollution prevention seriously at MLS. We implement measures to minimise our impact on the environment, such as using spill kits on our vehicles and equipment, properly disposing of waste materials, and using sustainable cleaning products. We also educate our staff on pollution prevention and regularly review our practices to ensure we are meeting our environmental goals.
Environmental training
We believe that environmental training is crucial in achieving sustainability. We provide our staff with regular training on environmental issues and best practices, including pollution prevention, waste management, and resource efficiency. This helps to ensure that our staff are equipped with the knowledge and skills they need to minimise our environmental impact.
Do you Need A second opinion?
We know relationships are key in this industry, if you require a fresh set of eyes for your next project please get in touch.
Legal Compliance
We are committed to complying with all relevant legislation and regulations related to environmental management. Legal procedures are in place to protect our world and ensure we operate in accordingly. We regularly review our practices and procedures to ensure that we are meeting our legal obligations and minimising our impact on the environment.
At MLS we prioritise the health and safety of our staff, clients, and the general public. We implement strict health and safety measures on all of our projects and provide our staff with regular training on health and safety best practices.
Environmental Accreditation (UK)
One way in which we ensure that we operate in as sustainable a manner as possible is by acquiring environmental accreditation. MLS is accredited to (insert an environmental accreditation). This accreditation demonstrates our commitment to sustainable construction and groundwork and our dedication to continually improving our environmental performance. We are also currently undergoing evaluation for CHAS.
CHAS is the UK’s leading provider of compliance and risk management solutions. With award-winning solutions this help contractors (suppliers) and clients (buyers) ensure supply chain compliance, mitigate risks and support efficient supply chain management.
We understand that sustainability is essential for the long-term health of our planet
We are currently undergoing an evaluation of our carbon footprint
Approximately 40 per cent of man-made global carbon emissions arise from constructing and operating buildings
We are investing in new sustainable technology, using less carbon-intensive materials and becoming more energy efficient
The future of construction
The resources we use must not cause unnecessary harm to our world. Sustainable construction and groundwork can help us conserve natural resources such as water, energy, and raw materials. This is important because these resources are finite and their availability is becoming increasingly scarce.
Sustainable practices can help to reduce the industry’s dependence on these resources and minimise waste.
Saving costs is important for us as well as our clients. Sustainable construction and groundwork can lead to cost savings in the long run. For example, incorporating energy-efficient designs and materials can lead to reduced energy bills and lower maintenance costs. This can also help companies to be more competitive in the market.
