Construction and estate
Kingston University is committed to building a sustainable estate. Find out about our Estates and Facilities strategy, our sustainable development goals and our recent investments in sustainable constructions.
Putting the environment first across our campuses
Our commitment to sustainability is at the forefront of all new developments.
Our Estates and Facilities Strategy, has the mission statement to: “Achieve a high quality, sustainable and compliant estate that enhances the experience of students, staff and visitors while enabling the University to meet its objectives.”
Our commitment to the environment and sustainability is at the core of new developments and refurbishments. All our new and refurbished building projects follow a ‘Standard Specification and Design Guide' and campus-specific ‘Construction Management Plans'.
These plans and guides ensure sustainability standards are adhered to throughout each project. They also help identify, control and mitigate potential environmental impacts that could happen during construction and refurbishment.
Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
Our practices tie in with the United Nations SDGs. These goals aim to transform our world and promote prosperity for all while protecting our planet.
The University's policy on estates supports 'Sustainable cities and communities', 'Responsible consumption and production' and 'Climate action'.
Our investment
We have invested in developing a sustainable built estate.
