Octatube recertified as B Corp !

Octatube has been recertified as a B Corp, a certification that demonstrates our measurable high standards and goals in social and environmental performance and transparency.

With our innovative mindset and responsible use of resources we design and build challenging, complex and iconic structures for an extended lifespan. In doing so, we actively contribute to achieving the ambitions of creating a sustainable built environment.

We are, for instance, dedicated to minimising the use of materials, energy and transport, and the amount of waste in our projects. Not only to make designs financially attractive, but more importantly to minimise the impact on the environment. Our inhouse developed CO2 calculation tool helps us track down how much a project will emit. It gives our engineers information about the CO2 levels of possible design variants so we can devise smart solutions to do more with less without compromising on quality or design. We continue to improve and expand this tool and have its reliability checked by external audit.

We believe that by understanding our impact as a company, by managing resources and by collaborating with various stakeholders, we can create a sustainable environment in which both current and future generations can do what they want to do most. Including realising challenging architecture.

Being a B Corp is just the beginning. B Corps are constantly moving forward, working to create more inclusive workspaces, improve their climate impact, and respond to the ever-changing issues in the world. Being a Certified B Corporation stimulates us to keep making progress. We’re proud to be one of them. Octatube is moving, changing and growing its impact to create a better future for everyone.
