Merchant MKM has becoming one of the latest businesses to pledge support to the Construction Leadership Council’s CO2nstruct Zero initiative as a business champion.
CO2nstruct Zero brings together businesses from across the construction sector to deliver the change needed to reduce carbon use in construction.
It is underpinned by nine priorities and includes a clear set of 28 metrics showing how the industry is performing.
MKM has also announced a series of partnerships to scale-up its Air Source Heat Pump offering.
Rachel Constable, head of ESG at MKM, said: “The climate crisis is one of the most immediate threats facing humanity and the construction industry has a pivotal role to play in helping the UK meet its carbon reduction targets. It is clear that, if these targets are to be met, the sector must take a collaborative, joined-up approach; an approach which initiatives like CO2nstruct Zero can help facilitate.
“I am proud to say MKM is now a CO2nstruct Zero Business Champion. We are looking forward to working with our industry partners to deliver real and sustained change to the sector’s carbon outputs.”
