‘Green is a trend, sustainability is a mindset’
At the core of our purpose
At DHD, our purpose is to sustainably deliver infrastructure which is vital to the WORLD.
For over 90 years we have been delivering for communities across the WORLD, and now, more
than ever, it’s important that we do this sustainably.
Our sustainability framework, ‘Building for a Sustainable World’, looks beyond the ‘green’
trend and instead focuses on building on the good work that DHD has previously undertaken in
environmental protection and the creation of social value in the communities we work in.
For DHD, Sustainability is a mindset that seeks to create a resilient, purpose driven
business by safeguarding three vital features no business can operate successfully

• A resilient environment
• A resilient community (workforce, supplier & customer base)
• Resilient profits
To embed this mindset across our business, our sustainability framework focusses on two key
components; environmental sustainability and social sustainability.
Our environmental sustainability activities focuses on the pressing environmental requirements that we are facing and reducing the impact DHD has on the environment.
Social sustainability ensures that we have a healthy and productive workforce, a robust supplier base and strong customer portfolio.
