Environmental
We implement this commitment through a robust Environmental
Management System to achieve legislative compliance and minimise
the impact of our operations in all that we do. Through training
and development we ensure our people are aware of the environment
they work in and the responsibilities they have to protect our
natural resources and minimise disruption to those affected by our
activities.
We drive improvement through comprehensive performance
monitoring to minimise waste, improve resource utilisation and
implement environmental best practice. We are working hard to cut
our Greenhouse Gas Emissions to mitigate Climate Change, reducing
the energy consumed in our offices, depots and factories, in
addition to reviewing fleet performance to achieve greater
efficiencies.
Put simply, Colas are committed to minimising our environmental
impact to protect the present and safeguard the future.

solutions for our customers with reduced material and energy
consumption.

Supporting Communities
In Warrington and Wirral Colas have established a partnership
with Elixir Foundations to collect and recycle all waste cardboard,
paper and plastic. Elixir are a social enterprise dedicated to
creating working opportunities for vulnerable adults including
people recovering from addictions, ex-offenders and the long
term unemployed. The business not only improves the lives of its
workers, but also provides waste management and recycling options
to local businesses.
