About Us Environment.

Lee Group complies with all environmental standards of the sites on which they work. If environmental standards are not specified on a site, we ensure work is completed in accordance with our internal Environmental Policy.

Our Environmental Standards

  • Lee Group ensures all waste steel, including offcuts, demolition material, or unsaleable surplus stock, is recycled using the appropriate recycling facility.
