Wills Bros Achieves PAS 2080 Verification, Cementing Commitment to Carbon Reduction
Wills Bros, a leading civil engineering contractor operating across the UK and Ireland, is proud to announce that it has achieved PAS 2080 verification status. This prestigious certification recognises the company’s robust approach to managing and reducing carbon emissions across its infrastructure projects, reinforcing its commitment to sustainable construction and climate resilience.
PAS 2080 is the globally recognised standard for carbon management in buildings and infrastructure, developed by the British Standards Institution (BSI). It provides a framework for organisations to systematically assess, manage, and reduce whole-life carbon emissions throughout the value chain. Verification to this standard demonstrates that Wills Bros is not only meeting but exceeding industry expectations in its efforts to decarbonise infrastructure delivery.
“This is a significant milestone for Wills Bros,” said Stuart Angus, Design & Sustainability Manager at Wills Bros. “Achieving PAS 2080 verification is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our teams across the UK and Ireland. It reflects our proactive approach to embedding sustainability into every stage of our projects’ lifecycle, which an increasing number of clients are expecting to see from contractors like us.”
The verification process involved a rigorous independent audit of Wills Bros’ carbon management systems, project delivery methods, and supply chain engagement. The company demonstrated a clear commitment to innovation, collaboration, and continuous improvement in reducing carbon impacts.
Jonathan Wills, Director, added: “Sustainability is at the heart of our business strategy. PAS 2080 verification not only validates our current practices but also sets a strong foundation for future growth in a low-carbon economy. We are proud to be among the early adopters in our sector and look forward to working with clients and partners to deliver greener, more resilient infrastructure.”
Wills Bros has already implemented a range of carbon reduction initiatives, including the use of low-carbon materials, digital design tools for carbon modelling, and close collaboration with supply chain partners to identify and implement carbon-saving opportunities. The company’s verification under PAS 2080 will further enhance its ability to deliver value-driven, environmentally responsible infrastructure solutions.
As the UK and Ireland continue to push towards net-zero targets, Wills Bros’ achievement positions the company as a forward-thinking leader in sustainable civil engineering. The company remains committed to driving innovation, fostering collaboration, and delivering infrastructure that meets the needs of both present and future generations.
