Our Approach to Sustainability
GTT is committed to sustainable practices in all aspects of our business. We believe that building sustainably is not only good for the environment but also good for the community. Our approach to sustainability is based on the following principles:
Resource efficiency
We strive to minimise the use of finite resources in our operations and products. This includes sourcing sustainable materials, reducing waste and optimising energy consumption.
Environmental protection
We take steps to protect the environment from harmful impacts. This includes implementing measures to reduce our carbon footprint, protect biodiversity and minimise pollution.
Social responsibility
We are committed to being good corporate citizens. This includes supporting our local community, creating jobs and promoting ethical business practices.
Carbon Neutral Materials
Our commitment to carbon-neutral construction sets us apart as a leader in environmentally responsible building solutions. This commitment includes sourcing timber from sustainably managed forests, utilising recycled and reclaimed materials and exploring innovative low-carbon alternatives. Plantations can have positive impacts on the environment by sequestering atmospheric carbon, protecting watersheds and improving water quality, conserving soil and enhancing biodiversity assets.
By choosing carbon neutral materials, we aim to minimise the environmental impact of our projects and contribute to a more sustainable Australia. We believe that sustainable building practices are essential for protecting our planet and ensuring a healthy environment for future generations. Our dedication to carbon neutrality demonstrates our commitment to creating a positive impact on the environment and building a better future.
Circular Design Principles
GTT is dedicated to incorporating circular design principles into our products and processes. Circular design focuses on creating products and systems that can be reused, repaired, remanufactured and recycled. By adopting circular design principles, GTT aims to reduce waste, extend product lifespans, promote resource efficiency and foster innovation.
Our commitment to circular design is part of our broader sustainability strategy. By incorporating circular principles into our operations, we aim to create a more sustainable and resilient built environment. We believe that circular design is essential for a future where resources are used efficiently and waste is minimised.
