Committed to sustainability

Building materials are essential to a sustainable society. Most of our products have sustainable qualities - durability well in excess of 60 years, low or nil maintenance, heat and noise insulation and they can be recycled.

To safeguard valuable mineral reserves, we use secondary and recycled materials whenever it is economic and technically feasible. And we have programmes in place to reduce energy and water consumption and minimise waste.

We provide safe and healthy working conditions for our employees and strive to minimise the impact of our operations on the environment and the communities in which we operate.

We have a comprehensive environmental policy in place, underpinned by a commitment to the principles of sustainable development.

We also report annually on our sustainability performance.
