Fordingbridge take their clients expectations and ideas and exceed
them. They look after each project from the initial design stage,
through to their in-house factory construction, to working with
contractors on-site or engaging their own installers to make sure
the on-site construction phase goes quickly and smoothly.
Sustainable buildings - design and construction
Although the construction industry struggles with
the requirement to be more sustainable, Fordingbridge are striving
to ensure 1) that their structures do their job well, last a long
time and use energy efficiently and 2) that they run their office,
factory & construction sites in a way that has the least
environmental impact possible without compromising the success of
their business.
The move towards sustainability is an ongoing process and
Fordingbridge are proud of the progress they have made so far. The
sustainable building design principles they are developing range
from simply ensuring that their timber is from renewable and
responsibly managed sources, to the most cutting edge technologies
in ensuring their eco-buildings are exemplary in their function and
energy consumption.
