Sustainability overview
As an industry leader, driven by innovation and continuous improvement, we recognise our responsibility in contributing to the safeguarding of the construction industry, our society and our planet. We are committed to achieving a more sustainable built environment, working closer with our customers and business partners, in order to meet everyone’s sustainability goals.
Environmental sustainability can be defined as ‘the responsibility of current generations to conserve natural resources and protect global ecosystems to ensure the health and well-being of future generations, in an equal and just manner’. This defining statement encompasses the Leviat values:
- People are our priority
- Character is our strength
- Performance is our commitment
- Innovation is our way forward
Decarbonising our UK operations to provide products and services that aid the global built environment in mitigating the impact of climate change, whilst adapting to the environmental threat associated with the climate crisis, is a core element of Leviat’s UK corporate strategy and purpose.
Among our priorities, our ‘Building a Sustainable Future’ resource highlights where operational carbon comes from, based on a 2021 baseline, and our plans to achieve net zero by 2050.
