HSE
Health, safety and environment - a priority
Safety first
At Algeco, we always want to provide our employees, subcontractors and clients with a safe and healthy work environment. As such, we are always working on optimising our processes in line with HSE. Health, safety and the environment are first on the list of priorities, always.
As a market leader it is our responsibility to create a safe, healthy work environment, without too much impact on the environment. Not just today, but also for the future. We are a successful company partly because we choose a safe, environmentally conscious way of working, implemented and constantly tested by committed employees and managers.
We guarantee a continuous programme of improvement through regular evaluation and adjustment of our health and safety programmes.

Eco-Future
As part of choosing sustainable development, Algeco introduced the label Eco-Future; a guarantee for quality and ecological values. Because: thanks to the use of natural materials such as wood and glass, Algeco products are recyclable modules! In order to meet client expectations of sustainable development, Algeco has opted to make modular constructions that comply with thermal regulations. Since 2008, Algeco has been committed to a coherent approach to ecological citizenship wherever it erects modular buildings: floor coverings are fitted using water-based adhesives, we use recycled paper for our communications, and our employees sort paper and other waste. You can join our ecological ambition by hiring energy-saving accessories from Algeco.
