Cadman Decarbonisation & Sustainability

Cadman Construction are delighted to introduce the most recent addition to our specialist works – Cadman Decarbonisation.

The construction industry is one of the world’s largest economic ecosystems, and as an industry we have a major part to play in helping the environment. As a well-established South-East contractor of 90 years, we have ensured that our Environmental Policy is aligned with the UK Cabinet Office ‘Carbon Reduction Plan’ and are committed to achieving Net Zero nationally by 2045. With extensive public sector experience in Education, Health, Leisure, Housing, Heritage, Defence and Industrial/Commercial we have more recently expanded our speciality works into Decarbonisation.

Cadman Construction are currently working as main contractors at Colchester Institute, one of the largest vocational training providers in North Essex. We are carrying out decarbonisation works to aid with energy efficiency & reducing annual carbon emissions by 290 tonnes, supporting the replacement of gas fired boilers with Air Source Heat Pumps, replacing single glazed Crittal windows and insulation panels throughout the existing pair of five storey teaching blocks.

Carbon Reduction Plan

At Cadman, we understand the importance of reducing our carbon footprint and preserving our planet. That's why we are proud to announce that we are actively monitoring our carbon emissions. We believe that it is our responsibility to take action and do our part in reducing our impact on the environment.

As a company we are on our own decarbonisation journey, and have already achieved:

• Membership of the UK Green Building Council (UKGBC)
• ISO-14001 accredited embedded systems and processes
• Replacing fleet vehicles with electric/hybrid vehicles
• Investment in multiple electric charging points at our Head Office
• Energy provided by SSE ‘Green Energy’ 
• Environmental training
• Cadman’s personalised Carbon Reduction Plan – fNZ (Future Net Zero) accredited 

We strive to promote collaboration between our employees, apprentices, stakeholders and visitors advising how they can play a part to promote environmental improvement initiatives and sustainable ideas to enhance Carbon reduction across the construction industry.

We would be delighted to discuss any decarbonisation/carbon reduction projects that you may have and are always on the look out for positive environmental initiatives.
