Environmental solutions that support sustainable foundations

Environmental responsibility is a shared commitment across every site and every team.

Our Environmental Targets

The Soletanche Bachy Group has defined a pragmatic Environmental Action Plan built around three priority areas: Energy, Waste, and Cement.

As a member of the Group, Soletanche Bachy Canada fully embraces these objectives and translates them into concrete actions on our worksites.

This includes:

Reducing Scope 1 & 2 emissions by 40%
Reducing Scope 3 emissions by 20%
Achieving 90% use of low-carbon concrete on projects by 2030, where practical

These targets guide decision-making at both the planning and execution stages of our projects.
