OUR SUSTAINABLE COMMITMENT

 

 

 

 

Implementing sustainable practices throughout our manufacturing process is only the beginning of Firth's contribution to sustainable building. Our sustainability pillars focus on carbon reduction, water conservation, the circular economy, supply chain efficiency and social responsibility.

Reduce / Recycle / Design / Connect

We can design mixes to meet customers’ desired Embodied Carbon (EC) rating, thus making a contribution to the low carbon efforts in the construction industry.

Reduce

Firth is committed to lowering carbon from manufacturing operations to the end product.

Recycle

Recycling returned concrete and wastewater is an integral part of our sustainability goal.

Design

Concrete provides durability and long life in any structure reducing the total cost as well as the environmental impact associated with rehabilitation or reconstruction.

Connect

Firth is focused on creating a positive impact on the world around us. We're supporting growth in 80 regions across NZ, buying local and providing employment.
