Sustainability at BWC Civil

Here at BWC Civil, we are dedicated to sustainable and environmentally-friendly practices. Given that many of our projects involve close proximity to natural landscapes, we take our roles and responsibilities seriously.

This commitment to the environment extends from reducing, reusing and recycling in the workshop to our Environmental Policy on all works completed. Every member of our team understands that strong environmental ethics is the key to the long-term growth and sustainability of our company.

Minimising the environmental impacts of our services also involves keeping our team up to date with all relevant environmental laws and legislation. We take pride in our culture of sustainability and readiness to embrace eco-friendly construction practices as our business evolves.

Sustainability in the Workshop

Some of our workshop sustainability practices include:

• Use of energy-efficient LED lighting throughout the facility
• Rainwater collection and use on the property
• Shredding and reuse of waste paper for animal bedding

Sustainability on Site

Some of our on-site sustainability practices include:

• Provision of skips for on-site sorting of recyclable waste
• Recycling and reuse of building waste materials (steel, aluminium, sand)
• Use of eco-friendly and recycled materials (eg. roadbase, profiling and drainage aggregate)
