Styles & Wood launches green strategy

FIT-OUT contractor Styles & Wood has launched a new environmental strategy as part of a campaign to improve its corporate responsibility.

The Altrincham-based business said that it is embarking on a three-year campaign titled ‘Think Green’ to raise awareness of the environment throughout the company.

It will set new sustainability targets for each colleague and has produced a new handbook providing guidance to staff and stakeholders. It is also working on an awareness campaign with staff to ensure that sustainable principles are incorporated throughout project designs.

The company’s head of procurement, Anne-Marie Wedd, said: “We have a responsibility to positively improve our environmental impacts and an obligation to our stakeholders and colleagues to be more efficient.

“Focusing on key environmental areas will help us to complete improved projects, to a shorter programme, at a higher quality and at a reduced cost.”
