Our environment | Ongoing commitment

Our comprehensive environmental policy sets out the arrangements for implementing the high standards of environmental control.

In respect to the activities we can control or expect to have reasonable influence over, we recognise our responsibility for protecting the environment and our environmental policy is a statement of that commitment.
 
We are also committed to the prevention of pollution and to complying with all applicable environmental, legal and regulatory requirements.

Recycling

As part of our Environmental Management System we have a segregated waste policy and although we are a low impact business, we are currently addressing ways to recycle a higher percentage of branch operation waste.

Sustainability

All the products we use in our day to day business have an extended life cycle, with the exception of timber products which are used for scaffold boards. Our scaffold boards are purchased from approved suppliers, each of whom can confirm that their products are from renewable and environmentally well managed sources.

In 2011 Bell Scaffolding, ESCO, Hünnebeck, SGB and Patent joined forces to operate under the new name of Harsco Infrastructure.
