Choosing our future

Partnering with our clients to Create and Build Sustainable, Responsible and Long-Lasting Infrastructures for a Better World

Since Quadrante was founded, we have outlined sustainable development as one of our principles and objectives.

We recognise our role in guiding our clients towards better choices and our obligation to create responsible, resilient and sustainable buildings and infrastructures that leave a positive social and environmental legacy on the planet.

To better fulfil our purpose and respond to our clients’ needs, two companies joined the Quadrante Group: Ecoprogresso, since 2012 and 3Drivers, since 2023.
Both organisations have proven experience in sustainability, ensuring Quadrante is prepared for the challenges the world posess

Empowering sustainable growth, our Environment Team ensures that every engineering solution stimulates innovation and supports entrepreneurial projects, but also protects Resources, paving the way for a greener and more resilient future.

Since 2005, we have consistently delivered multidisciplinary projects, maintaining dedication and quality throughout.

 

Based on the objectives of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and our Sustainability Commitment, we create value for our clients and the planet in a sustainable and responsible way.

Aware of the responsibility we have towards society, every day we seek to maximise the environmental, social and economic benefits resulting from our operations, with particular attention to the following topics:

Planet – Creating a lasting positive impact on the planet;

People – Adopting a talent-centred vision, prioritising the well-being and growth of our team;

Prosperity – Improving the well-being and sustainable growth of the communities we serve, maximising the social and economic benefits of our activities;
