In an increasingly environmentally conscious world, we’re all under pressure to realise ambitious eco-friendly commitments – without breaking the bank. It’s a challenge that will endure for generations to come.
In the ever-evolving landscapes of regulation and technology, understanding the wider impact of our work is paramount. Working with a partner that understands these touchpoints releases the pressure valve, providing the confidence needed to meet green commitments to our planet and communities.
Our people are industry leaders in delivering unbeatable environmentally sustainable and socially responsible spaces, and helping clients monitor and dramatically improve their performance and impact.
Whether bringing a sustainable future to a tired office block, building a zero-carbon school or even delivering a hyperscale datacentre in half the usual time, we operate at every stage of the lifecycle.
From Europe’s first WELL Platinum office in London to our wide-range of zero carbon distribution centres and ‘BREEAM outstanding’ certified spaces, we consistently help clients achieve exceptional results – ensuring everything we do leaves a lasting legacy.
"The aim shouldn't be to minimise damage to the environment, but to ensure that every action we take leaves a net gain to society."
Debbie Hobbs, Group Director for Sustainable Business, ISG

Sustainable Buildings Monitor: Charting a net zero legacy for our cities, towns and communities
The built environment has a critical role to play in tackling climate change. With a quarter of all CO2 emissions coming from buildings, the global community needs to reduce building energy consumption by over 80% if we are to reach zero-carbon targets.
If we are to chart a sustainable future, first we need to understand where we are now.
ISG’s Sustainable Buildings Monitor research and insight report provides data on the regional variations in the emissions produced by the operation of commercial buildings across the UK.
By understanding the data, we can better support regions, sectors and ultimately our clients, in cutting their emissions, delivering solutions to champion energy efficiency, and taking radical steps on the journey to securing a net zero legacy for our cities, towns and communities.
The time to act is now. How ready are you?
