Sustainability

With GIB^® plasterboard a great indoor environment doesn’t have to be at the expense of our great outdoor one.

Sustainability. It’s a word we’re hearing a lot of in the building and construction industry and one that we’re going to hear even more of in the near future as government makes sustainability a core part of its policy.

At Winstone Wallboards, we’ve embraced sustainability and are working hard to significantly reduce our impact on the environment. We’ve integrated environmental awareness into all our business activities:

• protection of the environment is a day-to-day responsibility all staff must accept
• appropriate management time and resources are allocated to address and continuously improve protection of the environment
• high standards of performance are achieved through positive action, employee involvement and constant communication with neighbours, local authorities and customers
• sales staff encourage designers and installers of GIB^® plasterboard systems to minimise the volume of on-site waste and utilise the Winstone Wallboards cut-to-length service
• operations staff strive to exceed all environmental regulatory requirements at all times

And now, in recognition of our efforts to continuously improve the sustainability of our products, we’re thrilled to have received Environmental Choice certification for our GIB^® plasterboards* 13mm or more in thickness.
