Building an iHus Annexe: Responsibly Sourced Materials

We’re committed to using materials on our annexe buildings that are not only durable and beautiful, but also responsibly sourced and environmentally friendly here at iHus. We do this by ensuring we use materials that meet the highest sustainable forest management standards. Every decision reflects our dedication to preserving the environment for future generations, from the wood we select to the innovative foundations and eco-conscious decking solutions we install.

We are proud to be certified by both PEFC and FSC, two leading global standards for sustainable forest management. The Pan European Forest Certification (PEFC), established in 1999, is the world’s largest certification system, ensuring responsible practices across the entire forest and wood industry. Similarly, the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) guarantees that materials from forests are sourced and processed responsibly, meeting strict environmental standards.

By partnering with these organisations, we’re committed to preserving our planet while supporting our people.

Ground screw piles are an eco-friendly and innovative foundation solution, offering several advantages over traditional concrete footings. We consistently partner with GroundScrews4U to install eco-friendly ground screw foundations for each project. Ground screw piles offer several advantages over traditional concrete footings. They require no extensive excavation or curing time, install quickly, and minimise environmental disruption. By eliminating concrete, we reduce the carbon footprint of the construction significantly while promoting better land conservation. Fully recyclable and adaptable to various ground conditions, these screw piles provide strong, long-lasting foundations that help us build a greener future.

These are just a few examples of our trusted network of experts too.
