CGS Contractors is an innovative company with a view of going carbon neutral by 2025 turning over our equipment to be fully electric and sustainably sourced which will achieve Cornwall Council and UK government targets. We see the future of our business as being green and have started a company wide transition to electric tools and machinery by working with reputable international companies to use the latest technology available on the market. Our company goal will start with our garden maintenance and tree teams reducing their diesel-powered tools to the electric commercial equivalent. We seek to be at the forefront of green technology to offer our clients a low emission and environmentally friendly future. We wish to revolutionise the carbon intensive construction industry and offer a brighter hope to our clients that anything is possible with the right mindset by choosing the right environmentally considerate contractor for the project.
