CARES has today published its Sustainability Report covering data from 2023 and updates across 2024.
It explains how CARES main opportunity to influence sustainability comes through the adoption of its Sustainable Constructional Steel (SCS) and Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) schemes. As well as providing sector data on scheme implementation it explores CARES’ own impacts and how CARES is working to reduce them.
Highlights include the fast growth of stand-alone Environmental Product Declarations (EPD’s); the application and benefits of the CARES Cloud and digital material passport; and case studies demonstrating improvements to biodiversity, Greenhouse gas emissions and responsible sourcing management and performance from approved firms.
Lee Brankley, CEO said “The construction industry has to navigate a confusing maze of supplier information. Our 2024 Sustainability Report transparently and clearly demonstrates how our sustainability schemes and independent, third-party certification can drive Environmental, Social and Governance performance improvements across the constructional steel value chain.”
