Carbon Footprint and Net Zero
Reshaping the built environment around us, ensuring a truly sustainable future
As a responsible business, we are dedicated to minimising our environmental impact. We strive to reduce energy consumption across all operations, from manufacturing processes to material sourcing and waste management. Our comprehensive carbon reduction plan has yielded significant results, demonstrating our commitment to sustainability.
Innovation is at the heart of our approach. We continually seek new ways to address environmental challenges and create long-term value for our community. By collaborating with our clients and supply chain, we are committed to reducing the embodied carbon of projects throughout their lifecycle.
Our focus on sustainability extends to our digital infrastructure. We are proud to use the UK’s first 100% carbon-neutral hosting company, aligning with our commitment to sustainable solutions that benefit our clients and the planet.

In collaboration with Low Carbon Materials (LCM) and Durham County Council, MGL Group has successfully implemented County Durham's first net zero road surfacing project at Elvet Hill Road. By utilising carbon-negative aggregate and locally sourced recycled materials, we've demonstrated our commitment to a circular economy and reducing our environmental footprint.
One of the most significant factors impacting our carbon footprint is the asphalt materials required for the surfacing works we undertake. Adopting a circular economy approach helps us to work towards net zero.
Our Plastipave products provide a long-term, cost-effective, and sustainable asphalt solution for end-of-use plastic and tyre waste. We have used Plastipave in 188 road schemes across the region for two Local Authorities in 2021, resulting in a carbon saving of over 534 tonnes.
