Contal believes that doing good business with the community brings with it responsibility, including to the natural environment in which we all live.
Nearly half of energy use in developed countries is related to their buildings. Construction, design, building materials, and heating and cooling all contribute to this significant impact on the environment.
With technologies available today, it doesn't have to be that way. At Contal we believe we can conduct business in more responsible ways that eliminate or reduce our impact on the environment.
The benefits of greener business practices don't stop with the environment. Ensuring energy and resource efficiency and minimising waste can greatly reduce business operating costs. And working for a business that actively demonstrates its commitment to the environment and staff health and comfort raises morale and employee satisfaction, and potential productivity.
For all of these reasons, the Contal Group aims to undertake its business in a green-friendly manner at all levels, from construction to day-to-day business operations.
To this ends, we have adopted the following environmentally responsible practices:
The growing body of knowledge about climate change indicates that drastic reductions in emissions are going to be needed in the near future to stabilise carbon in the atmosphere.
Success in this task is going to take inspiration, and it's going to take vision. It's a task Contal means to be a part of.
