Case Study: Changing the way we work for the future

At Glendinning, we don't just talk about our commitment to the environment, we regularly implement new ideas that will help lessen the impact our business has on the community and the environment.

• We use captured rainwater for the production of ready mixed concrete at our batching plants thus minimising demand for mains water
• Harvested rainwater is circulated throughout Linhay Hill quarry processing and production plant and also for toileting facilities, again minimising mains water demand
• Recycled fuel oil is used in our asphalt batching plant after we converted the heating system in 2008
• Waste oil from our vehicles is used as a fuel to heat engineering and maintenance workshops
• Reduced pollution certificates and Euro 5 engines are used within the LGV fleet
• All our LGV drivers are trained to the nationally recognised Safe & Fuel Efficient Driving techniques standard
• Auto light sensors are used throughout our facilities to minimise electricity usage
