Featured Case Study

Advancing Sustainable Construction at Harcourt Square

The Harcourt Square project is an example of how innovation and close partnerships with forward-thinking supply chain partners can drive meaningful progress towards low-carbon, sustainable construction.

Modular Rebar System

The system reduced on-site fixing time by 75%, cut crane hook time, eliminated rebar waste, and decreased deliveries by 35%, all helping to lower our carbon footprint.

100% Recycled Aluminium Façade

Over 200 tonnes of aluminium façade framing were installed. Made entirely from recycled aluminium, this choice supports circular economy principles and significantly reduces embodied carbon in the building envelope.
