Environmental consulting
Service with Minor Environmental Footprint
United Kingdom
From the outset Encore Environment’s aim has been to challenge the traditional routes of construction waste disposal and offer alternatives that reduce waste and create environmental and social value. We pride ourselves on being disruptive, entrepreneurial and innovative, implementing early-stage sustainable interventions that encourage a change in behaviours towards waste. We provide total waste management services including pre-construction audits, site waste management plans, skip, bin, and cage services, hazardous waste removal, and BREEAM assessments; but what makes us stand out is that we are Progressive! We want to reduce the amount of waste created. Our award-winning environmental and social value initiatives deliver proactive sustainable strategies using data and technology to reduce and reuse waste, reduce costs, decrease carbon and, with strong links to social enterprises, charities and education, they are transforming lives and promoting sustainability education in schools. Our culture is centred around a can-do approach, motivation, and friendship. It has always been important for us to have an inclusive, flexible work environment where careers thrive. In a traditionally male-dominated industry, we empower women to be leaders in the waste sector.
