Sustainable Building

At Focus we take our environmental responsibilities seriously and apply these principals to every project where practicable:

  • Avoid: Choose products that produce minimal waste
  • Reduce: Produce less waste
  • Reuse: Use product again in its original form
  • Recycle: Produce new products from used materials. link to mck letter
  • Recover: Use source materials where possible

Some examples of this in action, include:

  • All the aluminium for our extrusion and raised floor systems utilises recycled materials.
  • Our staff and subcontractors are trained prior to starting on site to maximise the volume and quality of materials salvaged in the course of each project.
  • We only use timber from sustainable resources.
  • We actively promote recycling of materials and have an in-house sorting area.
  • We are licensed operators to the Waitakere Waste Collection baling station, where all waste materials are sorted for recycling.
  • We are currently investigating the sustainability of using recycled materials for framing.
