Geoquest secures three new EPD certifications, reinforcing our commitment to sustainable infrastructure
Sustainability is at the core of Geoquest’s philosophy. Since the 1960s, Geoquest has been transforming the way civil engineering structures are designed and built, pioneering innovative solutions that reduce environmental impact and deliver long-term resilience.
As a global leader in soil-reinforced structural solutions, Geoquest UK is proud to announce the achievement of three new verified Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) for key products in our low carbon range. This milestone highlights our commitment to sustainability, transparency, and reducing carbon emissions in the construction industry.
The new EPD certifications cover:
-
Low carbon precast facing panels
These panels offer a global warming potential (GWP A1-A3) of less than 24 kg CO₂e/m², demonstrating the sustainable design of Geoquest’s solutions and the long-term environmental benefits of reinforced earth structures. -
Low carbon precast arches
Capable of spanning up to 30 meters, these arches are used for cut-and-cover tunnels, wildlife crossings, and environmental overpasses. They combine structural performance with a significantly reduced carbon footprint. -
Low carbon precast copings
Designed to integrate seamlessly with Geoquest’s panel systems, these copings offer both durability and lower embodied carbon, supporting more sustainable project outcomes.
We extend our gratitude to our precast partner Macrete for their vital role in developing the low carbon concrete mixes that make these solutions possible. This partnership demonstrates the shared commitment of both companies to reducing carbon emissions and delivering sustainable infrastructure solutions for a changing world.
Geoquest’s verified EPDs reflect our dedication to environmental transparency and performance, helping clients meet their sustainability goals while benefiting from the durability and efficiency of reinforced earth solutions.
By combining engineering excellence with a focus on environmental responsibility, Geoquest continues to lead the way in delivering innovative, low carbon infrastructure for highways, railways, ports, and coastal projects worldwide.
