The use of diesel fuel to power construction plant and machinery has been identified as one of the ‘hotspots’ in energy consumption and carbon emissions for many contractors across the UK. With businesses seeking to reduce operational carbon emissions this creates an opportunity to achieve significant steps towards sustainable construction and Net Zero targets.
“Net Zero” is the current buzz word throughout the construction industry, and as such the ‘embodied carbon’ or ‘recycled content’ within new construction products is under scrutiny, with the perception that those manufactured with lower embodied carbon, or greater quantities of recycled content, are more sustainable. Yet a better understanding of the full picture is essential when choosing products.
