INNOVATION IN FOUNDATIONS
We believe in our global stewardship and responsible management of resources.
We actively manage our consumption of resources, and seek ways to reduce our impact on the earth.
We believe sustainability is everyone’s responsibility and we require every HCM Group employee to make sustainability central to every business decision. We believe in the integration of environmental, economic and social sustainability practices.
Senior management of HCM Group continually reappraises work practices and develops new technologies to reduce consumption of resources. As such, you will find our workers using eco-friendly products and reducing the amount of concrete, wood and steel used in foundations based on stamped engineering drawings that eliminate the practice of “overdesign” that leads to excessive use of resources.
