Hazelwood adopt a responsible attitude to purchasing, ensuring our materials have full chain of custody from our suppliers. We have experience of working with main contractors under BREEAM and are able to fulfil all requirements. Our joinery holds both PEFC and FSC certification.

We are part of the Sustainability school, and take part in local training and events, such as FIR (Fairness, Inclusion and Respect) awareness training. Ongoing training and awareness opportunities are sought by us to ensure our staff are aware of opportunities to improve our working environment through whatever means.

Our commitment to environmental matters extends to using our premises to house our very own apiary. We currently have four hives, producing a healthy yield of honey, whilst pollenating the surrounding area and have provided educational talks and materials for a bee hotel at a local primary school to spread the message of the importance of environmental changes that can be made to ensure we are sustainable in the future.
