Here at Express Drainage Solutions, we take our social and environmental responsibilities seriously. We recognise that our activities can potentially have an impact on the environment, and so we make attempts to understand these impacts, creating plans to effectively mitigate them where possible. 

What Express Drainage Solutions does for the environment 

As one of the world’s most pressing issues, the subject of sustainability and environmental responsibility has begun to affect businesses and how they operate. Express Drainage Solutions take many measures to operate responsibly and in a way that does not negatively impact future generations. Below are just some of the actions we take in line with this aim: 

Here at Express Drainage Solutions, we: 

• Consider the life cycle of all the products we use, and opt for the least harmful options 
• Carefully plan out our operations to minimise our noise and chemical pollution 
• Dispose of any waste in accordance with legislation, and only use approved and registered carriers   
• Make sure we meet our legal obligations 
• Re-use, replace and recycle, where possible 
• Understand the environmental impact of everything we do 
• Ensure social responsibility is built into any management arrangements. This ensures that all our staff, managers and contractors understand the commitment we have made and how it might affect them
• Review our energy use and environmental performance, endeavouring to improve it each year 
• Seek out suppliers who have similar commitments to the environment

All objectives and policies are communicated to employees so they can support their success. 

Our environmental accreditations  

Environment Agency: Dedicated to the protection and improvement of the environment of England and Wales, one job of the Environment Agency is to register companies to be carriers, brokers and dealers of waste. Express Drainage Solutions are on the Environment Agency’s public register for these activities, which means we are fully licensed to carry them out. 

ISO 14001: We’re proud to have achieved certification to ISO 14001 – the global standard for environmental management systems. By using this system and framework, our company can control the environmental aspects of our business, including our sustainable practices, ensuring that we reduce the impacts of our operations, and guarantee their legal compliance.
