YORhub was the first framework provider to sign up to the WRAP Halving Waste to Landfill commitments. Since then we have supported academic research into the development of a suite of carbon KPIs which have been successfully trialled by the YORhub lead authorities.

Our frameworks aim to produce less than four tonnes of waste per £100k, of which no more than two tonnes of waste per £100k are to be sent to landfill.

Key performance indicators are generated for each project and contractors are required to report on waste arising and waste to landfill.

The locality of spend in relation to the construction project is also measured and monitored.

And we are not going to stop there. YORhub is committed to supporting the UK’s transition to a low-carbon future, embedding sustainability into the procurement process from project design to construction, operation and maintenance, as laid out in detail in our Net Zero Carbon Strategy
