Delivering Net Carbon Office Development

Our journey to Design and Install Net Carbon Office Development has begun and we are excited and proud to be involved in this fantastic project.

Plot A3 is a new office development at New Bailey, which is part of ECF’s Salford Central scheme. ECF has a vision for the project to be as sustainable, energy and carbon efficient as possible, increasing biodiversity and creating a positive impact on society. The scheme is targeting net zero carbon in operation and will be designed in line with the UKGBC Net Zero Carbon Framework Definition. The design is currently meeting the UKGBC 2030 energy intensity target. The building will be one of the first in the UK to have its operational performance verified using the NABERS UK scheme, targeting a 5.5 star rating and is also set to be BREEAM Outstanding and WELL Platinum.

Working with Bowmer + Kirkland will be another in our partnership together have already delivered New Bailey B2 and we are soon to start our operations on site on New Bailey B7.

We are working in partnership with Cundall Engineering Consultants in Manchester and we will learn so much on this journey on the Net Carbon requirements which enables us to say we have considerable experience on future similar and Net Carbon projects.

At A&B Engineering, Apprenticeship Week provides an opportunity to recognise the important role apprentices play within our business and the wider engineering industry. We are proud to support apprenticeships as a key pathway into engineering, helping individuals develop practical skills, gain industry experience, and build long-term careers. Our apprentices are an integral part of our team, contributing to projects while learning from experienced engineers and developing the technical and professional skills needed for the future. Through structured training, mentorship, and hands-on experience, we aim to create an environment where apprentices can grow with confidence and achieve their potential. Investing in apprenticeships is part of our wider commitment to social value. By providing opportunities for young people and those looking to retrain, we help strengthen local skills, support employment, and contribute positively to our communities. As we celebrate Apprenticeship Week, we would like to thank our apprentices for their dedication and enthusiasm, and we look forward to supporting the next generation of engineering talent.

At A&B Engineering, we are committed to creating positive social value through the opportunities we provide, the communities we support, and the people we invest in. To help us better understand and measure this impact, we work with SocialScore , a social value measurement tool developed by The Women’s Organisation. Built on over 30 years of social value expertise, SocialScore enables organisations to track, evidence, and report on the difference they make across community engagement, employment, skills development, and wellbeing. Through SocialScore, we are able to capture meaningful data that reflects our contribution to society — from apprenticeship and work experience opportunities to community initiatives and workforce development. This approach ensures transparency in our reporting while helping us identify new ways to strengthen our social impact. Our partnership with SocialScore supports our ongoing commitment to responsible business practices, allowing us to measure what matters and continuously improve the value we create for our communities and stakeholders.
