ETogether, we are working towards a sustainable future

We seek a future where our own impact on the world is not only minimised, it is positive.

Ibstock plc is no ordinary manufacturing business. We are now, and have always been, committed to driving sustainability – people, planet and profit – through investment in our organisation.

Our ongoing sustainability and environmental improvements include water efficiency, recycled water, energy efficiency, sustainability policy ISO 14001 update and lighting efficiency programme update.

In early 2019, Ibstock Brick was announced as the winner of the Energy Efficiency category at the prestigious “edie Sustainability Leaders Awards 2019”. The awards, coordinated by leading environmental publisher edie.net, recognise excellence across the spectrum of green business. We received praise from the judges for the recognition that all our people are essential change-makers when it comes to delivering sustained improvements in energy efficiency, and the great results seen over the past year are testament to that. Read more about this story on the Ibstock Brick website.
