Our Environmental Commitment

  • At Menard UK we are committed to sustainability and improving the environment by embedding this into our everyday activities.

  • We strive to offer low-carbon alternative solutions where feasible, optimising the ground improvement proposal to promote the most carbon-efficient technique

  • We strongly believe in our motto that “less is more”.

  •  Since 2021, we have been focusing our efforts to decarbonise, and we constantly look at ways to reduce our carbon emissions, acknowledging that we have a duty to protect the wider environment and reduce our environmental and pollution impact.

  • In 2025 we achieved ISO 14064-1 accreditation, ensuring accurate and transparent data and reporting

Act on Climate Change:

what do we account for in terms of CO2 emissions?

Carbon footprint is the starting point for any climate strategy

– you cannot reduce what you cannot measure

Scope 1

Scope 1 Energy we BURN

  • fuel and gas

Scope 2

Scope 2 Energy we BUY

  • electricity (including renewable energy)

Scope 3

Emissions Footprint – 2025

Our Environmental Ambition

The implementation of the environmental reporting within Menard is in line with VINCI’s environmental ambition, which is based upon the following three pillars:

Act on climate

Optimise resources through circular economy

Preserve natural environment

Targets:

0%
reduction of direct emissions (Scope 1 and 2) by 2030 compared to 2021*
0%
reduction of indirect emissions (Scope 3) by 2030 compared to 2022*

Concrete focus:

90 % low carbon concrete use by 2030, in line with Exegy definitions

*Our environmental goals are based upon absolute values values requiring emissions reductions regardless of business growth. The only exception is for acquisitions, where we incorporate the emissions of the new business into our benchmarks.
