NBS

NBS is an integrated global platform for everyone involved in the design, supply and construction of the built environment. Their cloud-based technology solutions help both specifiers and manufacturers of construction products to deliver projects more sustainably. NBS understands that, as well as its vital role in helping the construction sector reduce emissions, it must also play its own individual part through operations. Subsequently, NBS has been measuring its annual carbon emissions since 2019, and has put in place an ongoing plan to reduce them in the future. Forest Carbon's partnership with NBS is part of this plan, and through the plantation schemes that they have funded, they aim to not only capture carbon equal to their emissions but also to provide improvements to wildlife in areas local to our business. NBS is based in the north-east of England. Details of NBS' support for UK woodland creation can be found below. In additiotn they have retired certified international offset credits via the Verra Registry.
