The company is responsible for developments such as Curborough Lakes on Watery Lane.
A Lichfield-based housebuilder has been named in the top 500 of Time magazine’s world’s most sustainable companies for a third consecutive year.
The recognition for Barratt Redrow, which is responsible for developments such as Curborough Lakes on Watery Lane, underscores its industry-leading commitment to preserving and enhancing the natural environment and building great places that promote healthy and happy living for homeowners.
This accolade places Barratt Redrow among a select group of companies across the globe recognised for their leadership in sustainability.
Joanne Watson, Sales Director at Redrow Midlands, said: “This achievement reflects the dedication of our teams to reducing our environmental impact, innovating and creating communities that last.
Sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. Being included on this global list is both an honour and a powerful motivation to keep pushing the boundaries of what responsible homebuilding can achieve.
Time and its research partner, Statista, used a transparent, multi-stage methodology to identify the world’s most sustainable companies. Sixty-two UK-based companies received the accreditation in 2026, all of which are setting the benchmark on sustainability performance, transparency and innovation.
Working with highly skilled partners in the sector, Barratt Redrow is driving change across the organisation and its value chain to meet society’s most pressing challenges, including climate change, diversity and inclusion, and human rights. The business is committed to all new builds being zero carbon in regulated energy use from 2030.
At the University of Salford, Barratt Redrow and scientists are working together to rigorously test how climate change will affect the homes of the future. The research from the Energy House 2.0 facility is being shared with housebuilders around the world to support their own transition to zero carbon.
On site, the housebuilder is taking steps to reduce its operational footprint with a major focus on reducing and eliminating diesel use. This includes trials of hydrotreated vegetable oil as a lower-carbon fuel alternative and testing hydrogen telehandlers.
Alongside this, it is improving site energy efficiency, expanding the use of renewable electricity and introducing tools to monitor emissions from construction activities.
Barratt Redrow’s determination to be a quality, sustainable builder was also recognised in June by the National House Building Council’s Pride in the Job Quality Awards, with 122 site managers honoured – more than any other housebuilder for the 22nd year running.
