Essex-based Eco Green Group has opened up a new base in South Yorkshire to enhance its offering to its northern clients.

The eco-construction company has set up a new site in Sheffield to better suit its projects in Doncaster, Manchester and Birmingham.

“Having a base north of our original Essex-based office will allow us to connect with more businesses and bring eco-construction to new communities,” says Keith Hills, who founded the company as Eco Green Roofs in 2011 before changing its name last year.

It has worked on a variety of projects, from Battersea Power Station to Eton College and Leicester City’s training ground.

Eco Green Group’s new Sheffield based will be located at Aizlewoods Mill. “It was really important to us to choose a building with great architecture and history already in place, rather than knocking it down and starting from scratch. It’s also a simple way to help cut carbon emissions.

“We look forward to building strong relationships and making a positive impact in the region.”
