Sustainability

Climate Resilience 

Climate change presents both risks and opportunities for our business, clients and supply chain. 

Climate Risk Management 

We assess climate related risks and opportunities across: 

• Physical risks (including extreme weather impacts on assets, projects and workforce safety) 

• Transition risks (such as regulatory change, decarbonisation requirements, client expectations) 

• Opportunities (including protective coatings, resilience upgrades, enhanced environmental remediation) 

These considerations are integrated into our operations through: 

• Asset design criteria, durability assessments, climate scenario vulnerability assessments and lifecycle strategy 

• Project planning, sourcing and delivery 

• Strategic growth and service offerings 

Climate Strategy & Targets 

Duratec is committed to supporting Australia’s transition to a lower carbon economy while continuing to deliver resilient infrastructure. 

Our focus areas include: 

• Reducing diesel consumption across operations and sites 

• Procuring accredited GreenPower for our offices 

• Identifying opportunities to procure products with lower embodied carbon or recycled content 

We are progressing our capability to measure and disclose greenhouse gas emissions in line with ASRS requirements and will continue to enhance data quality and transparency over time. 

Environmental Stewardship 

We aim to minimise our environmental footprint while delivering durable, high-quality outcomes. 

Key areas of focus include: 

• Waste reduction and responsible disposal, including hazardous materials management 

• Environmental compliance and monitoring in line with applicable legislation 

Responsible Governance 

Sustainability and climate related risks and opportunities are overseen by the Duratec Board, with accountability embedded at executive and operational levels. 

The Board: 

• Oversees sustainability strategy, material risks and targets 

• Reviews sustainability performance and disclosures 

• Ensures sustainability is integrated into business decision making 

Senior management is responsible for implementing sustainability initiatives and monitoring performance across the business. 

Duratec monitors emerging risks, trends and technologies and continues to integrate sustainability across our business. By targeting proactive adaption, we aim to deliver enhanced protections for staff, the environment, client assets and the communities in which we operate.
