Sustainable Construction: How Gripple is Leading the Way

Sustainability is at the forefront of modern construction, with increasing pressure on contractors, engineers, and project teams to reduce environmental impact while maintaining performance and compliance. Regulations like the UK Net Zero Strategy and sustainability frameworks such as BREEAM and LEED drive the demand for verified, low-carbon solutions.

At Gripple, we are committed to providing innovative suspension solutions that prioritise environmental responsibility, efficiency, and transparency.

Why Sustainability Matters for Contractors:

Lower Embodied Carbon
Reducing the carbon footprint of construction materials is essential in the journey towards net zero. Our solutions offer verified reductions in material use, supporting carbon-conscious construction while maintaining structural integrity and performance.

Installation Efficiency
Lightweight systems not only minimise material usage but also simplify handling and installation, reducing labour time, costs, and on-site emissions. This makes projects faster, more efficient, and more sustainable.

Environmental Impact Data
Sustainability requires transparency. Our full documentation, including Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) and CIBSE TM65 assessments, ensures that contractors have access to clear, verified data to support compliance with industry standards and sustainability goals.

Ambitious Targets
We are dedicated to achieving net zero across our global operations by 2030, setting ambitious goals to reduce our environmental footprint and drive industry-wide change.
