Five More Firms Join CO2nstruct Zero

MOMENTUM continues to build around CO₂nstruct Zero, the industry’s united response to the need to drive carbon out of construction.

From 4 April 2022 five more companies from across the broad spectrum of construction have signed up to become CO₂nstruct Zero Business Champions.

The campaign was launched last year to unify industry efforts to cut carbon. It focuses on nine priorities including moves to zero emission plant, retrofitting existing buildings, measuring carbon use and developing low carbon materials.

CO₂nstruct Zero Business Champions are businesses that have made commitments in relation to these priorities and have agreed to share their good practice with the wider industry.

The newest Business Champions are:

• Cara
• Civco
• Naylor Industries
• Timloc Building Products
• Tilbury Douglas

CLC co-chair Andy Mitchell said: “We are now moving into our second year of the CO₂nstruct Zero campaign, but I am pleased to see that we are seeing no let-up in the number of companies that are looking to get on board.

“These latest Champions have made a commitment to work collaboratively as we live up to the promises we made at COP26 to reduce the carbon use of the UK construction sector.”
