The basis of the AVTOBAN Group environmental policy is its compliance with all norms of Russian and international environmental law, environmental monitoring, documentary confirmation of environmental management, ongoing training and advanced training of responsible personnel. The company has an effective environmental management system that meets the requirements of the international standard ISO 14001.
Regarding environmental protection, AVTOBAN carries out the following activities:
equips mobile plants with expensive air purification equipment,
consumes natural resources as cost-saving as possible,
disposes of and recycles construction waste,
introduces technologies and equipment that reduce CO2 emissions,
expands the circulation economy concept, according to which up to 25% of asphalt concrete road surface is reused.
At the design stage, our specialists plot routes that bypass habitats of rare animals and specially protected areas, fish feeding and spawning grounds. When designing, the minimum constriction of river channels and change in the natural landscape are stipulated with the maximum use of dust-free road pavements and measures for surface dust removal. When constructing routes in the forest belt, we build wildlife crossings to preserve the usual migration paths of forest animals, while building bridges, we strengthen channels and banks and install regulating structures.
Upon completion of construction work, our specialists carry out comprehensive land reclamation in order to prevent drainage, flooding or soil erosion, and plant protective green areas.
