Building a sustainable tomorrow

SUSTAINABILITY

At BAM, we care about our impact on people and the planet. That’s why our goal
is to leave the world a better place than we found it. We have a responsibility
to help care for our environment and the communities we work in - both today and
tomorrow.  

We’ve already taken incredible steps toward sustainable construction, but we
want to go further and play a leading role in building a sustainable future. 


2026

Target date to achieve net zero carbon


2030

Target date to have a positive biodiversity impact 


35%

Social value on all projects over £10 million from 2030 


75%

Reduction in construction and office waste by 2030, compared to 2015 




BUILDING A SUSTAINABLE TOMORROW 

Our purpose is to build a sustainable tomorrow. Our new Sustainability Strategy
is a clear plan of action to achieve this purpose, with a series of ambitious
targets for 2030. 

We started by asking ourselves a simple question. How can we make the biggest
difference? To find the answer, we looked to the United Nations Sustainable
Development Goals (UN SDGS). By analysing our business against these goals,
we’ve defined a clear plan of action based around six themes: 




DECARBONISATION 

Our ambitious carbon target – to become net zero in our direct operations by
2026 – puts us at the forefront of the UK and Ireland construction sector. And
we're always looking for ways to reduce our impact and help our clients and
supply chains to do the same.  


CLIMATE ADAPTATION 

We’ll build with climate change in mind, providing our clients with
climate-adaptive assets which are resilient against future change. By 2030 we’ll
integrate climate adaptive measures into all our projects.   


BIODIVERSITY 

Healthy ecosystems are more resilient to the changing environment, that’s why we
have set a target for BAM to have a positive biodiversity impact by 2030. Our
objective is to protect biodiversity, enhance ecosystems and help mitigate the
effects of climate change on our communities. 


SAFETY, HEALTH AND INCLUSION 

We foster safe, healthy and inclusive working and living environments for
everyone. Preventing accidents and illness is crucial. But it’s time to create
environments that are not just preventative, but proactive. Sustainable
environments that enhance people’s lives – today and long into the future. 


SOCIAL VALUE 

The built environment has a big impact on our wellbeing. Our objective is to
develop buildings, places and infrastructure that supports environmental,
economic and social wellbeing – and enhances people’s lives. By 2026 we’ve
committed to delivering a minimum of 35% social value added, across all projects
over £10 million.


CIRCULARITY 

We’re striving for zero waste by delivering circular products. When we design a
project we consider its entire lifecycle. So instead of ending up in landfill,
materials go back into the supply chain, maximising resource efficiency and
eliminating waste. By 2030 we will reduce our waste by 75% compared to 2015.

IT’S TIME TO TAKE ACTION 

Climate change affects all of us, and its negative impact grows daily. As part
of the civil engineering and construction industry, we’re responsible for 39% of
all global carbon emissions and around 36% of all energy use.  

At BAM, we know that we’re part of the problem. But that means we can be part of
the solution, too.
