SECR Statement

We measure and report our energy and carbon data across the whole of our operations, giving comprehensive data to authenticate the environmental impact of the Company. Our SECR statement is made on a wholly voluntary basis which underlines our "green" ambitions and responsible business practices. It includes all emission sources required under the 2019 regulations for the financial year ended 31st December 2025.

Scope 1 emissions arise predominantly from the diesel used in company vehicles, plant, and equipment. Other Scope 1 emissions include the gas used to heat the premises, accounting for 1% of such emissions. Scope 2 emissions arise from the purchase of electricity from the grid.

The carbon intensity ratio we have chosen is the best reflection of our total activity across all our operations and is based on the total turnover of the Company. Our carbon intensity ratio for the year ended 31st December 2025 is 60.4 tCO2e per £Million of turnover. Operational expansion has increased overall emissions; however, we have achieved our lowest carbon intensity ratio since 2021. We remain committed to long-term reductions. We have purchased our first fully electric van as part of our commitment to reducing Scope 1 emissions, have installed LED lighting, switched to green tarrif energy contracts and conducted a solar PV feasibility study. Additionally, we are actively exploring alternative fuels, which should drive absolute reductions in emissions in the future.

We are progressing with our carbon reduction plan with interim targets to monitor our performance across all departments. We are continuing to engage with our suppliers to measure the indirect carbon in our entire value chain (Scope 3) so that we can develop effective plans to report and then reduce our total carbon footprint in future periods.

To calculate the carbon emissions, we have used the emission factors from the UK Government’s GHG Conversion Factors for Company Reporting 2025. One of the requirements of the SECR regulations is to report our total UK energy use in kilowatt hours (kWh); for this, we have used the 2025 conversion factors referred to above. The Scope 1 and 2 emissions reported are for all operational facilities under our control and for which we have direct management responsibility and have been calculated on a "location" basis.

Our total UK energy usage for the year was 2,409,132 kWh, reflecting increased activity levels. Despite this, we remain committed to energy efficiency measures and carbon reduction strategies to drive down our emissions in the coming years.

As a result of our commitment to sustainability, we have an established management system that meets the requirements of ISO 14001, an internationally recognised standard and the Green Growth Pledge.

    100% Electric vehicle

    We have purchased our first electric vehicle based in London and have Hybrid vehicles throughout our fleet.

    Climate Change Teaching

    We work in partnership with Cardiff Council on their ‘One Planet Cardiff’ initiative dedicated to achieving a carbon-neutral Cardiff by 2030. As part of our commitment, we have sponsored 10 schools to implement the UK’s pioneering climate change programme for primary-aged pupils. We offer an ideal complement to the DfE’s sustainability and climate change strategy. Our joint effort to improve air quality in classrooms through the Clean Air Action initiative will make a significant impact. The innovative Liquid Trees are a game-changer for classroom learning. These unique trees are an integral component of the comprehensive climate education programme and possess a remarkable ability to capture CO2, up to 400 times faster than traditional trees (under optimum conditions).

    Alternative Fuels

    We are actively exploring alternative
    fuels e.g. used HVO on recent project in Port Talbot.

    -

    Myscapes

    We have developed a bespoke digital platform that enables real time project tracking, optimising workflow, resource management, and operational efficiency across the site.

    This has reduced paper waste by approximately 80%, lowering the project’s environmental footprint and contributing to overall sustainability objectives.

    -

    Workshop

    All machines are maintained thoroughly in our in-house workshop to ensure efficiency and fuel efficiency.

    -

    solar pv study

    We have conducted a solar PV feasibility study in our main offices in Bridgend.

    -

    Green energy tarrifs

    We have switched to green tarrif energy contracts to reduce carbon footpring and greenhouse gas emissions.

    -

    LED lighting

    We have installed LED lighting in all offices, using 90% less energy than incandescent bulbs and 100% recycleable.

    -

    suppliers/sourcing materials

    We are continuing to engage with suppliers to measure the indirect carbon in our entire value chain (Scope 3) so that we can develop effective plans to report and then reduce our total carbon footprint in future periods. We are encouraging suppliers to report their emissions and carbon reduction plans.

    -

    waste

    We have implemented waste segregation on both office grounds and site for recycling and use our Samurai 5 Composter to mulch all organic waste turning it into compost to be reused.
