Mulalley and Company are committed
to reducing/minimising the environmental impact of our works.
Our construction activities are
carefully planned to avoid unnecessary nuisance, disruption of
natural and wildlife habitats, destruction of trees and other
landscape features.
 Our
approach to Resource Management
In recognition of the fact that the earth's resources are
finite, every step will be considered to minimise waste through
recycling or other techniques.
Construction Materials
We only purchase timber from 'managed' or sustainable producers
who comply with Forests Forever; FSC or similar purchasing
policies. Where possible "environmentally friendly"
materials shall be proposed for incorporation into the works.
Vehicles
Company owned and operated vehicles have generally been diesel
powered, as this has been considered to be more energy efficient
than equivalent petrol driven vehicles, resulting in less fuel
consumed by our fleet generally. New generation efficient LPG
driven vehicles are also in use.
Office Materials
All staff are encouraged to take sensible measures to use
products such as stationary produced from recycled materials.
Waste paper is kept to a minimum, and where possible recycling
systems are in use.
Fuel Economy
Staff are encouraged to switch off lights, heaters, office
equipment and machinery when not in use. Rooms are kept at a
comfortable level and are not allowed to overheat or conversely
air conditioning is not used to refrigerate rooms.
As Building Contractors we create
and therefore must deal with a number of problems. The main
areas of concern are: Noise Pollution, Visual Pollution, Air
Pollution, Water Pollution, Waste Materials and Effluent,
Contaminated Land and Wasteful Practices.
