Recognising our responsibilities.
We recognise that our business activities result in both direct and indirect environmental impacts and that our responsibilities extend beyond shareholders, customers and employees to the wider community and include responsible environmental management.
We are committed as a company to managing our business with the aim of reducing our direct and indirect environmental impacts and believe that this is an important step towards increasing the sustainability of our business in the long term.
We are working in partnership with Upstream Strategies, the UK Green Building Council and the Better Buildings Partnership to formulate strategies, targets and action plans for the sustainable management of all our property portfolios.
Recycle, reuse, refurbish
We aim to reduce wastage, through our development and refurbishment programmes, where we strive to exceed minimum standards and sets targets for the re-use and recycling of demolition materials.
For our directly managed properties, working closely with our managing agents, we aim to deliver continual improvement in the environmental performance of the buildings through the adoption of best practice, the management of energy and water, the prevention of pollution through waste disposal and controls on the use of oils, chemicals and the use of ozone depleting substances including carbon dioxide emissions. We aim to establish Environmental Management Systems at properties to control the environmental aspects of our building management activities, reduce environmental risks and set annual targets so that improvement may be measured.
Occupier engagement
We are working in partnership with our occupiers and Green 500 to aim at reducing carbon across all Central London office buildings in our portfolios. This initial project will then create best practice working methods to work across our entire portfolio.
