Bouygues-Thai

Topsite

With the goal of minimising the environmental impact of our construction sites, Bouygues Construction launched a series of initiatives that set common standards across our core business areas in early 2010. Comprising three elements, the initiatives underline our respect for the natural environment as a whole, as well as the local environment surrounding each of our sites.

Environmental standards stem from the most stringent national regulations, as well as drawing on our already exemplary practices observed across the Group.

Topsite Label

Representatives of the Group’s Quality Safety Environmental Department, all of whom are independent of the project, audit each site. On successful completion of this audit, the site will be awarded the Topsite Label.

The Top Label recognises a number of features implemented across the project including detailed monitoring and recycling of excavated materials, specialised staff training in environmental management, extensive recycling of materials and rainwater and the implementation of a site-wide environmental key performance indicator system.
