Dowhigh Ltd is a family run business estabilished in 1975.

A significant force within the North West construction industry, the business offers a wide range of highway infrastructure and civil engineering specialities undertaken through a combination of skills and experience.

Dowhigh was engaged with reducing their carbon emissions and wished to analyse whether the changes they made to their business had further reduced their carbon emissions over the past few years. Eco-I NW were able to meet this requirement by providing support and direction to assess the carbon footprint of the company and provide recommendations which would enable Dowhigh to further reduce carbon emissions.

The research collaboration with Eco-I NW and LJMU included project scoping, data collection, administration, meetings to discuss project progress and data preparation. Upon completion, the company was given a report containing the carbon assessment of the company and recommendations to help further reduce Dowhigh’s carbon footprint.

“We started our partnership with Eco-I NW and LJMU with the aim of starting our sustainability journey, through setting a benchmark for the company regarding our GHG emission. The partnership with Eco-I NW enabled us to set a baseline CO2 emission for the company and we have initiated various initiatives to reduce our footprint. We would like to thank Eco-I NW for nudging us in the path towards sustainability.”
