DENTON is a Responsible Business
ESG
DENTON has implemented innovative, value-driven ESG initiatives to enhance efficiency and sustainability across the business. Today, success goes beyond maximising shareholder profits—it also requires addressing the needs of all stakeholders and understanding our company’s societal impact.Our comprehensive ESG Policy formalises our longstanding commitment to responsible business practices and is built around three core principles: openness, transparent governance, and clear, achievable targets.
CSR
We want to be the “leaders for good” with our Corporate Social Responsibility Policy. We take pride in supporting our employees and the community by championing responsible trading, fostering inclusivity, upholding integrity, building lasting relationships, enforcing rigorous health and safety standards, and striving to reduce our environmental impact.
Sustainability
At DENTON, our commitment to sustainability and responsible business practices reflects our ambition to be a ‘force for good’ in the industry. In line with this commitment, we published our ESG strategy and Good Practice standards, calculated our greenhouse gas emissions inventory, and developed a strategic Carbon Reduction Plan aimed at achieving NET ZERO by 2050. Since 2009, we have maintained our ISO14001 accreditation, published key policies to support our goals, and, in a step toward broader impact, partnered with the City of London’s “Heart of the City” initiative, underscoring our dedication to responsible, sustainable business practices.
Carbon Reduction
DENTON is committed to reducing our current greenhouse gas emissions in line with UK Government goals and our core values as a responsible business. Our carbon calculations and Net Zero strategy align with the World Business Council for Sustainable Development/World Resources Institute Greenhouse Gas Protocol and UK Procurement Policy Note PPN06/21. DENTON aims to halve its Scope 1 and Scope 2 CO2e emissions by 2030, achieving Net Zero across Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions by 2050. We integrate circular economy and Net Zero principles into our daily operations, from responsible sourcing to fostering sustainability awareness within our team. We encourage our employees to be active participants in this journey toward carbon reduction.
Good Practice
DENTON’s Good Practice Policy establishes a framework of internal procedures to be applied across all our projects, offering clients a consistent standard of service. The policy covers a range of sustainable practices, including waste management, energy usage monitoring, responsible supply chain practices, local sourcing, and prioritising products with Environmental Product Declarations. Additionally, it incorporates Net Zero principles and includes SKA rating assessments as a standard process, with final certification upon project completion.
Responsible Procurement
DENTON acknowledges the environmental impact of its operations, aiming to go beyond compliance with legal and regulatory standards. Our Responsible Procurement Policy (RPP) establishes a structured approach to sourcing materials, services, and subcontracts, ensuring consistency across all specification and procurement processes. Whenever possible, DENTON works with our supply chain to minimise environmental impact, reduce natural resource consumption, and ensure materials are sourced responsibly.
