99% Project Waste Recycling
Kier the main contractor on The Forum Kings Quarter site challenged us to reduce waste by 41% on site, which has been exceeded. Furthermore, the recycling rate currently is surpassing 99%.
This results in cost savings, and enhanced site operations, with notable environmental advantages. We're incorporating the best practices from this project into our future projects to ensure they become an integral part of our standard operating procedures.
Well done to Kier Group, our Logistics site team and everyone working on the project going above and beyond to meet environmental targets.
