Project NoWaste
This is another partnership between Greenfile Developments and UCATT,
other partners include Bovis Lend Lease and the London Business Link.
The first phase of Project NoWaste was part-funded by the Carbon Trust.
Project NoWaste takes the skills developed
in PROJECT build 2000 a stage further by linking
lean construction to construction site activities. The focus
is on improving site organisation: reducing waste and environmental
impacts and to improve health and safety. Phase 1 of Project
NoWaste started in September 2003 and concluded at
the end of 2004. |

Phase 2 of Project NoWaste is currently on-going and is a partnership
between Bovis Lend Lease and Greenfile Developments only.
Project NoWaste is a National Champion in the Green Apple Awards
(2005). The project won the category of Waste Management - Construction.
It is also one of the short listed finalist for the Building Magazine
Sustainability Awards 2005. |
