Business & Approach

By 2020, sustainability will be embedded in everything we do, worldwide.

The impacts of climate change, resource depletion and a fast-growing world population are intensifying the need to deploy proven sustainable technologies and approaches and bring new ones to market sooner.

We believe that sustainable infrastructure is consistently the best option and we play a significant role in helping our clients make sustainable choices. The scale and breadth of Balfour Beatty’s activities gives us the opportunity to make a very positive social, environmental and economic impact.

We believe that profitable markets, healthy communities and environmental limits are not competing interests; they are shared outcomes that closely align with one another. This alignment is central to Balfour Beatty’s 2020 Sustainability Vision.

By applying four key principles to our work and decisions, we will achieve our 2020 objectives:
