Local Resources & Commitments

BRAND® is committed to helping customers overcome the unprecedented challenges you face with each project. Whether innovations in building design, increased demands for environmental protection and the ever-present responsibility for safety, all combined with extraordinary pressures on timetables and budgets.

Health & Safety

At Brand, Safety comes first, always. Our absolute commitment to a safe work environment is at the heart of our operating system and our comprehensive and in-depth safety policies, systems and programs are designed to engage the entire workforce in the delivery of safe work on all our projects. 

Environment

Our comprehensive environmental policy sets out the arrangements for implementing the high standards of environmental control. All parts of the Brand business in the UK is accredited to the environmental standard ISO 14001:2015. 

In respect to the activities we can control or expect to have reasonable influence over, we recognise our responsibility for protecting the environment and our environmental policy is a statement of that commitment.

We are also committed to the prevention of pollution and to complying with all applicable environmental, legal and regulatory requirements.

Recycling

As part of our Environmental Management System we have a segregated waste policy and although we are a low impact business, we are currently addressing ways to recycle a higher percentage of branch operation waste.

Sustainability

All the products we use in our day to day business have an extended life cycle, with the exception of timber products which are used for scaffold boards. Our scaffold boards are purchased from three suppliers, each of whom can confirm that their products are from renewable and environmentally well managed sources.

Quality

All Brand equipment is manufactured, rigorously inspected and maintained to its own, industry recognised, quality control standards. The quality management team is involved in the regular vetting and monitoring of suppliers to ensure they do not compromise on material and performance specifications.

The processes we follow are outlined by our comprehensive internal quality manual, guaranteeing the engineering and product specification standards that you need to work safely. Areas of our business are accredited to meet the requirements of ISO 9001:2015, maintaining dedicated commitment to high standards.

Innovation & Engineering

We have engineers and designers covering a range of disciplines and are chosen for their ability to innovate solutions that pre-empt and solve problems, and save money for customers. Innovations can be new ways of using old methods, new applications for existing products, or something completely radical. We have the global breadth and depth to apply a solution developed in Prague to a project in Penang, with immediate cost savings and no ‘reinvention of the wheel’.

With experience and expertise stretching back over a century, we have already developed many widely used solutions, but more importantly, we have the ingenuity to devise new ones. The breadth of our product range increases our versatility, and are adept at finding practical, intelligent solutions from the simplest to the most complex projects.

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)

In addition to our ethical code of conduct, we are a business that enthusiastically promotes corporate social responsibility (CSR).

Proactively supporting our local communities and wider public interests, we aid local and international charities, sponsor local youth sporting teams, encourage education through dedicated training programmes and promote local employment where possible.
