By reducing carbon emissions, we minimise our impact, improve efficiency, and build long-term value.

EHS + REPORTING

AECI’s EHS Framework sets the benchmark for safe, sustainable and high-quality operations across all Group businesses — backed by strong governance and world-class reporting standards.

At AECI, our integrated approach to Safety, Health, Environment and Quality is fundamental to how we operate. It ensures that every part of the Group meets rigorous standards that protect people, preserve the environment and deliver consistent quality. Our SHEQ Framework provides a structured, risk-based foundation to drive continuous improvement, while clear accountability at every level ensures compliance and leadership in responsible business practices.
