Sustainability Designing a Sustainable Future
Stride Treglown is committed to ensuring that we understand, support and respond to environmental and sustainable requirements both in the design we offer and the way in which we manage our business.
The environmental impact of our work is complex and far reaching. We scrutinise all aspects of our activity to make sure that we have a holistic approach to maximising the environmental potential of the buildings we design. We see it has being our responsibility to design comfortable, practical and inspiring buildings that make a positive contribution to the environment and to the quality of all our lives, reducing energy consumption and carbon usage, embracing best practice and current thinking.
We have adopted the One Planet Living model that enables us to continually evaluate key areas of our business, design and service, ensuring that specific targets and issues are addressed in support of a sustainable future.
In accordance with our ISO14001 (QE) accreditation, we measure gas, electricity, water and paper consumption at all our offices and the travel of our staff. We undertake assessments of our offices on a regular basis and use these measures to inform part of our KPI's. As a business, we have a commitment to reducing our carbon footprint by 10% within the next year and an ongoing objective to achieve further reductions in energy and materials consumption.
As a practice, we provide exemplar and award winning sustainable design across many sectors.
Stride Treglown will be supporting Big Green Week which is taking place 9th - 17th June 2012.
