Crest Nicholson, which is currently building the Ingress Park, Avante, Liberty Park and Hardy’s Gate developments in Kent, has beaten stiff competition to be crowned ‘Sustainable Housebuilder of the Year’ at the 2011 Housebuilder Awards.
The highly coveted accolade recognises Crest Nicholson’s ongoing commitment to sustainable development, as well as its success in balancing economic, environmental and social considerations to deliver sustainable mixed-use communities.
Annette Cole, Sales & Marketing Director for Crest Nicholson Eastern, said: “It is a tremendous honour to be named ‘Sustainable Housebuilder of the Year’ and we are thrilled with this accolade. The need to reduce carbon emissions and tackle the problems posed by climate change remains an integral part of our mission and sustainability in its broadest sense delivers real business value.
“Crest Nicholson is committed to continuing to explore the use of new and innovative technologies in order to ensure sustainable standards become far more widely used across the industry. We are extremely proud of our achievements in this area and it is wonderful that our efforts have been recognised by our peers.”
Now in their seventh year, the Housebuilder Awards, delivered in association with NHBC and the Home Builders Federation, showcase best practice ideas and technology. The awards recognise companies which demonstrate a strong commitment to innovation in the housebuilding industry, with the winners all having been recognised for driving forward quality in the delivery of new homes.
