Sustainability at Hubworks
At Hubworks, we’re committed to sustainability. EPC A rated, all the units we develop are designed, built and maintained with sustainability in mind.
Our Approach
There’s a supply shortage of sustainable SME new build business units, alternatives are too large, dilapidated, unsustainable, cold, noisy and outdated
That’s why Hubworks innovative design concept includes many sustainability features, plus new build assurances and warranties – over and above the competitive offer.
That’s why they’re regularly snapped up as soon as they’ve been built.
Since 2020 investments include the installation of over 750+rooftop solar panels (to April 2026) and in excess of £500,000 spent on BNG compliance – which includes ecological surveys, viability assessments, rectifications and ecological improvements.
You can be assured that every Hubworks site has had biodiversity net gain (BNG) ecological surveys plus rectifications completed and is ESG compliant in build design.
Assets are futureproofed for emissions reduction, water use, and energy efficiencies, and are compliant to UK build regulations. Also includes Secure by Design *SBD safety assurance developed by police recommended design consultants, plus a 10-year structural warranty.

Better for Business. Better for the Environment.
Every decision made across a Hubworks development — from the materials we specify to the technologies we install — is guided by one principle: doing more with less impact. We believe that sustainable building and commercial practicality aren’t in conflict. Done properly, they reinforce each other.
Lower energy consumption means lower overheads. Smarter infrastructure means less maintenance. Greener surroundings mean a better environment to work in, every day.
From biodiversity planting and sustainable drainage to solar generation and smart energy monitoring, sustainability is woven into the fabric of every site we deliver — so that when you move in, the hard work is already done.
