Our impact - How does B Sussed align with the UN Sustainable Development Goals?
Through our work in the built environment, we help organisations reduce environmental impacts, use resources more efficiently, improve the wellbeing of building users and move towards a more circular economy.
We believe sustainability should be demonstrated through practical action and measurable outcomes. This principle applies both to the advice we provide to our clients and to the way B Sussed operates as a business.
Our activities contribute most directly to SDGs 11, 12 and 13, with additional contributions to 2, 3, 9 and 17.
Our core impacts
SDG 11 Sustainable Cities & Communities
B Sussed supports organisations in moving towards more circular and resource efficient models of construction.
We support clients in identifying opportunities to prevent waste and retain the value of existing building products and materials through reuse and recovery.
Our wider sustainability services also support responsible procurement, resource efficiency and improved sustainability reporting.
Our focus: Sustainable buildings • Sustainable fit out and refurbishment • Resource efficiency
SDG 12 Responsible Consumption and Production
Through pre-refurbishment and demolition audits, circular economy strategies and sustainable procurement, we help clients identify opportunities to prevent waste, retain the value of existing materials and reduce embodied carbon.
Our focus: Material reuse • Waste prevention • Circular economy • Sustainable procurement
SDG 13 Climate Action
We help clients understand and reduce the carbon impacts associated with buildings, materials and operations through carbon and
energy strategies, embodied-carbon considerations, refurbishment and material reuse.
As our circular economy services develop, we aim to quantify the carbon benefits associated with successful reuse wherever robust data and methodologies allow.
Our focus: Carbon reduction • Embodied carbon • Renewable energy

We work from coworking facilities rather than maintaining a dedicated office, sharing workspace and resources with other organisations.
