Suppliers must seek to:  Prioritise materials and products that restore, replenish, or enhance natural living systems.  Avoid extractive materials that degrade ecosystems, deplete finite resources, or cause long term environmental harm.  Use resource efficiently and maximise material lifespans through good design and appropriate material use  Demonstrate a clear transition plan away from extractive inputs where alternatives are not yet available.  Minimise embodied carbon in construction materials (e.g., concrete, steel, insulation).  Prioritise regenerative or circular construction materials (e.g., reclaimed steel, recycled aggregates, lower embodied carbon concrete alternatives, timber from regenerative forestry).  Avoid extractive materials linked to high impact mining (e.g., virgin aggregates, aluminium, PVC).  Seek to design for deconstruction, enhancing the residual value of materials at the end of design life and reducing future reliance on extractive practices Ethical and Non-Exploitative Supply Chains. Suppliers must seek to:  Ensure all labour practices across their supply chain are fair, safe, and free from exploitation.  Avoid sourcing from suppliers or regions associated with forced labour, unsafe working conditions, or unfair pay.  Maintain transparent supply chain mapping and provide evidence of due diligence on request.  Ensure fair and safe working conditions on construction sites. 2.3 Climate Friendly Operations. Suppliers must seek to:  Minimise carbon, water and waste in their organisations and core operations.  Specifically minimise greenhouse gas emissions across production, transport, and distribution.  Prioritise low carbon materials, renewable energy, and efficient logistics.  Minimise whole life carbon impacts in design and materials, optimising embodied carbon together with operational efficiency.  Reduce site emissions (plant, generators, transport) and use electric or low emission plant and machinery.  Implement site level water management and waste segregation plans.  Demonstrate continuous improvement in reducing their carbon footprint, water usage and waste production, supported by measurable data where possible.  Drive design towards deconstruction practices and offer (and advocate for) regenerative material options to replace more mainstream materials  Nature Enhancing Practices. Suppliers must seek to:  Adopt practices that actively improve soil health, biodiversity, water quality, and ecosystem resilience.  Use regenerative agricultural, manufacturing, or operational methods wherever feasible.  Avoid chemicals, processes, or materials known to harm biodiversity or natural habitats.  Implement nature positive site practices.  Ensure soil protection and restoration before and after works.  Avoid habitat disturbance and protect ecological features during construction. Circularity and Resource Stewardship. Suppliers must seek to:  Maximise recycled, reclaimed, or up-cycled materials.  Design products and packaging for reuse, repair, or recycling.  Minimise waste generation and avoid single use materials unless essential for safety or compliance.  Design for reuse, modularity and disassembly.  Maximise reuse of demolition materials.  Avoid single use construction materials (e.g. plastic sheeting)  Offer and opt for the use of bio-based and recovered materials wherever viably possible Read full description ## CPV classification Petroleum products, fuel, electricity and other sources of energy Mining, basic metals and related products Agricultural machinery Leather and textile fabrics, plastic and rubber materials Electrical machinery, apparatus, equipment and consumables; lighting Security, fire-fighting, police and defence equipment Collected and purified water Industrial machinery Machinery for mining, quarrying, construction equipment Construction structures and materials; auxiliary products to construction (except electric apparatus) Source Find a Tender (UK) · Notice ocds-h6vhtk-06680d-2026-03-12T10:21:54Z [View official notice](https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/ocds-h6vhtk-06680d-2026-03-12T10:21:54Z) Never miss a tender like this again Get AI summaries, deadline alerts and a bid pipeline for tenders matched to your business.
