Builders Merchants Journal – BMJ Publishing to Builders Merchants and the UK merchanting industry for more than 95 years
Keyline Civils Specialist is the first civils merchant to achieve PAS 2080:2023 Carbon Management in Infrastructure and Built Environment with the British Standards Institution (BSI).
The accreditation, which applies to all new infrastructure and retrofit projects, is a global standard for effectively managing and reducing carbon emissions throughout the lifecycle of projects.
George Woollard, technical director at Keyline Civils Specialist, says: “PAS 2080 has provided us with a vital framework to drive carbon reduction. With an emphasis on collaboration and greater transparency – and, critically, its consistent, standardised approach to carbon data – it makes working closer together to improve sustainability much simpler.
“Many of our customers are already PAS 2080 accredited. By being proactive regarding sustainability goals, we can better support the construction industry moving forward. If the whole value chain works together to adopt low carbon best practice, we are better placed to collectively reach carbon reduction targets. This standard helps us do that.”
