Engage responsibility for positive impact on communities and environments
Integrate ESG mission into everyday operations, corporate culture and global strategy
Reward and recognize sustainability innovations internally
Promote safety through regular H₂S Alive and hazardous-environment training

Environment + Sustainability

40% reduction

Embodied Carbon Reduction

Structural designs achieve up to a 40% reduction in embodied carbon compared to standard concrete frames.

Committed to understanding and reducing Scope 1, 2, and 3 carbon emissions
Internal initiatives include renewable-energy electricity contracts, paperless offices, LED lighting, recycling, and reusable keep-cups
Project-based actions include early-stage carbon calculations, embodied-carbon assessments, sustainable material selection, water-sensitive, and adaptive design
Partner with Infrastructure Sustainability Council—earned Silver (EastLink WA) and Excellent (Smithfield Bypass) ratings
Collaborate via SmartCrete CRC on low-carbon concrete innovations
Net-zero target: Carbon-neutrality ambition integrated; first all-electric net-zero building delivered; aim for full net-zero by 2050
