We’re building and operating our company with sustainability and environmental responsibility in mind.
We have pledged to do everything we can to reduce carbon emissions and support a thriving natural environment.
As a modern contractor, Sheriff Construction understands our responsibility to reduce environmental impact at every stage – from procurement and construction to waste disposal and transport. Sustainability is more than a policy; it’s part of how we operate every day.
Eco-friendly practices:
Supporting our clients’ sustainability goals
- Installing green, blue, and biodiverse roofing systems
- Minimising waste with near zero-waste policies on site and at Head Office
Reducing emissions from our fleet
- Investing in hybrid vehicles and stop-start engine technology
- Eliminating idling, tracking usage and promoting carpooling
- Maintaining all vehicles for optimal efficiency
Smart use of materials and resources
- Conserving energy and water in office and site operations
- Reclaiming, recycling and upcycling materials (e.g. our boardroom table, outdoor decking and flower boxes were all made this way)
Procurement with purpose
- Choosing suppliers committed to sustainability and ethical practices
- Supporting local economies by sourcing locally wherever possible
- Minimising delivery journeys to cut carbon emissions
Greener property development
- Designing homes that are well insulated, energy efficient and low carbon
- Promoting alternatives to car use, such as cycle storage
- Avoiding the need for gas supplies where possible
Education and culture
- Enrolling our team in the School of Sustainability to access cutting-edge learning
- Promoting environmental awareness through regular Toolbox Talks and blog content
- Maintaining best practice in waste management, pollution prevention and community care
These practices form the building blocks of our approach to environmental responsibility. We’re proud of how far we’ve come – but we’re always pushing for better: smarter systems, greener materials, and a more sustainable future for everyone.
