Sustainability is in our DNA

Restoration is almost always more resource-efficient than replacement or new construction. This is what makes our business fundamentally sustainable. But we do not rely on this advantage alone. Instead, we aim to restore damage in a way that minimizes additional impact on the climate and environment wherever possible.

What We’re Already Doing

Here’s a snapshot of some of the active measures we’ve implemented to reduce the impact of our operations globally.

Innovative Restoration Technologies

We’re focused on utilizing and investing in equipment, tools, and processes to reduce waste, water use, and energy consumption on the job.

Examples include: 

  • BELFOR DRYSmart® digital, AI-monitored drying process reduces drying times and saves energy
  • Advanced on-site water treatment process to capture, clean, and reuse water
  • BELFOR Soot Removal Film (SRF) cleans soot and captures waste while reducing chemical runoff

Everyday Energy Efficiency & Emissions Reduction

We’re making practical, smart improvements to our infrastructure, fleet, and travel that help to curb resource use and cut carbon emissions in our day-to-day business.

Examples include:

  • Energy-efficient building systems
  • Gradual fleet electrification worldwide
  • AI-powered route optimization
  • BELFOR 360° Damage Scan creates a virtual twin of the damaged property so personnel can conduct further inspections without traveling to the site every time
