Environment policy
We are committed to considering our impact on the environment.
This policy sets an overall direction for the Group. However, since our businesses undertake different activities and operate in a different ways, they have different environmental impacts and priorities. Therefore, whilst each business must adhere to Group policy, we expect them to develop tailored approaches to manage the issues that really matter to their operations.
Commitments

- Measure and continually improve our performance with respect to our main environmental impacts
- Report openly on our impacts and progress towards meeting our goals
- Encourage our suppliers to improve their own environmental performance
- Ask our customers for their perceptions on environmental issues relating to our business
- Compare our environmental activities with those of others in our sectors to help us improve.
Priorities
- Improve energy management
- Manage the impact of our transport fleets
- Reduce the consumption of materials
