Responsible Sourcing

The target set by Government in its Sustainable Construction Strategy target is at least 25% of construction materials should be supplied from suppliers with responsible sourcing certification by 2012. The concrete industry has taken significant steps to exceed this and has published Concrete Industry Guidance for the BRE Framework Standard for Responsible Sourcing (BES6001) to facilitate the early certification of a significant proportion of concrete to the responsible sourcing standard.
