Building for the Future: How Gripple Supports Sustainable Construction

Sustainability is no longer just an aspiration in construction – it’s a necessity. Contractors, engineers, and project teams must now balance environmental responsibility with performance and compliance, ensuring every component contributes to a lower-carbon, resource-efficient future. With regulations such as the UK Net Zero Strategy and globally recognised initiatives like BREEAM and LEED shaping the industry, the demand for verifiable, low-carbon solutions has never been greater.

At Gripple, we are committed to driving meaningful change by delivering innovative suspension solutions that not only enhance installation efficiency but also support environmental responsibility. Here’s how we make a difference:

Low-Carbon Solutions ✅
Our systems are designed to replace traditional, high-carbon materials such as threaded rod, significantly reducing embodied carbon while maintaining strength and durability. By choosing lightweight, precision-engineered solutions, we help contractors lower the environmental footprint of their projects.

Certified Environmental Performance ✅
Transparency is key in sustainable construction. That’s why our products undergo rigorous assessments, including CIBSE TM65 and Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs), providing clear data on carbon impact and lifecycle performance. These certifications help project teams make informed decisions based on verified environmental metrics.

Meeting Sustainability Standards ✅
Our solutions contribute to achieving credits in leading sustainability assessment schemes, such as BREEAM and LEED. By integrating our products into your projects, you can work towards enhanced environmental performance while maintaining compliance with industry standards.

Lightweight and Efficient Products ✅
Our supports use up to 95% less material than conventional alternatives, leading to significant weight savings. This not only reduces transport emissions but also improves handling and ease of installation, further supporting efficient and sustainable construction practices.

Building Sustainably with Confidence
By prioritising sustainability at every stage – from material selection to product design and certification – Gripple provides contractors with solutions that align with evolving environmental goals. Whether you’re looking to reduce embodied carbon, achieve sustainability accreditations, or streamline installation efficiency, we’re here to help.
