Environmental and Social Initiatives

  • Life Cycle Assessments, completed on several 3D volumetric offerings to identify “high embodied carbon” materials & source greener options.
  • 90% of our power for our Modular Factory and Offices comes directly from our roof mounted 165kw Solar PV system.

  • Recycling waste to reduce volume to landfill.

  • Reduced the steel content in our bathroom pods by 72% by switching from hot rolled steel to self-manufactured light gauge cold rolled steel.
  • Removed the need for shot blasting and painting from several of our modular products and hence have improved our impact on the local environment.
  • Business supporter of the All Ireland Pollinator plan, addressing bee decline in Ireland and enhancing our nature positive sustainability pillar.
  • Support our clients LEED objectives, complying with LEED requirements ensuring LEED goals are met. Castle Group have worked on many LEED projects with our Trade Partners, two of which have achieved LEED Platinum status.

Sisk Sustainability Award 2022

Castle Group is proud to have been honoured with the SISK Supply Chain Award for Sustainability 2022 in recognition of our innovative efforts in advancing sustainable construction practices. This award highlights the commitment of Castle Modular to delivering environmentally conscious solutions that align with the construction industry’s growing demands for greener and more efficient building methods.

Through the adoption of modern methods of construction (MMC), including offsite fabrication, we have significantly reduced carbon emissions while maintaining the highest standards of quality and efficiency. Our dedication to sustainability is reflected in our alignment with Sisk’s 2030 Sustainability Roadmap: Building Today, Caring for Tomorrow, which sets ambitious targets for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and embracing environmentally responsible practices.

Castle Modular’s leadership in sustainable construction, combined with our ability to consistently deliver high-quality modular projects, played a pivotal role in this achievement. This award is a testament to our ongoing commitment to integrating sustainability into our core operations and showcases Castle Group’s role in driving the future of construction towards a more environmentally friendly and sustainable industry

Castle Group conducts Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) analysis as part of its commitment to sustainability, particularly in modular construction. LCA is a method used to assess the environmental impact of a product, process, or service throughout its entire lifecycle, from raw material extraction through manufacturing, use, and disposal.
