Wilten Construction Achieves Perfect Scores and Multiple Awards by the Considerate Constructors Scheme

At Wilten Construction, we are proud to reflect on another year of success to date in the Considerate Constructors Scheme (CCS). The scheme continues to provide an important benchmark for the standards we set on our sites – from safety and quality through to the way we respect local communities, the environment, and the people we work with.

Successful Night at the 2025 CCS Awards

This year, we achieved two Bronze Awards at the 2025 CCS National Site Awards for two of our projects at LeMieux, Hampshire, and Bridge, Croydon.

LeMieux, Hampshire – a 50,241 sqft Headquarters inclusive of Offices and a Warehouse Unit

Recognition was given to the team who maintained a carefully managed site with strong attention to detail and coordination. They maintained ongoing operations at LeMieux’s existing warehouse with zero disruption. High scores were awarded, demonstrating the team’s commitment to all aspects of the Code of Considerate Practice.

Isni Basha, Operations Manager, said: “We’re incredibly proud to have received the Bronze Medal at the 2025 Considerate Constructors Scheme Awards. This recognition reflects the dedication and hard work of our entire project team, who consistently delivered a safe, respectful, and sustainable site".

Bridge Industrial, Croydon – a 60,400 sqft Distribution and Logistics Facility

The project team stood out at the awards night for the significant community engagement and social value delivered for the local area, building excellent relationships with neighbours, supporting local initiatives, and promoting careers in construction through fairs and educational events.

These awards are a testament to the dedication of our people in going above and beyond in every aspect of project delivery. 

Mario La Barbera, HSEQ Manager, said “Receiving the Bronze Medal at the 2025 Considerate Constructors Scheme Awards is a fantastic achievement and highlights our commitment to health, safety, environment, and quality on site. It demonstrates that our focus on safe working practices, sustainable construction, and community engagement is making a real impact. I’m proud of how our team embraced the Code of Considerate Practice and continuously strived to raise the bar for responsible construction throughout the delivery of the Croydon scheme.”

Consistently High Standards, Displaying Excellent and Outstanding Scores Across All Sites

Alongside national recognition, our 2025 CCS site inspections have been consistently strong. We achieved an average score of 43.6/50 (Excellent) – significantly above the industry average.

These flawless scores recognise that throughout construction, we have been a considerate neighbour and have upheld the high standards set by the Code of Considerate Practice, which requires respect for the community, care for the environment, and value of the workforce.

Additionally, three sites achieved Outstanding ratings; Ferne Park in Fareham, the Aeronautical and Technology Training Centre at Leicester College, and most recently, Unit 1/1A in Dunstable which achieved our highest score to date of 48/50!

To achieve these scores, the sites developed and implemented best practice initiatives across environmental sustainability, community relations, and workforce wellbeing. Specific examples include start the conversation cards, carbon reduction and climate change toolbox talk, and life VAC, all contributing to achieving additional Collaboration Scores and ultimately an overall Outstanding score.

These best practice initiatives have been shared across the industry via the CCS Best Practice Resource Hub – demonstrating our role in helping to raise standards across construction.

Standout Results in 2025

Our Excellent scores in 2025 are driving growth, strengthening repeat business, and building new client relationships. These results showcase the dedication of our teams, whose daily commitment to delivering site operations with professionalism and consideration is clear to clients and stakeholders alike.

CCS Monitor Visits to several of our projects showcase some of our strongest performances throughout the year:

Plot 302b, Waterworth Road, Peterborough – Perfect Score of 45/45

The site achieved maximum marks across all categories. CCS highlighted our strong record of inspiring the next generation through local careers events and mentoring students through CV guidance and mock interviews to facilitate their step into construction careers. Additionally, the team volunteered their time to fundraise for charities and foodbanks through project specific actions, bolstered with corporate initiatives such as our Annual Golf Day.

Bauder, Gateway 14, Stowmarket – Perfect Score of 45/45

Being our first project at Gateway 14, our team’s vision was to achieve excellence, setting the standards expected across other projects on this major development site. The team were praised for their work experience regime, supporting T Level students from the local area, promoting local skills development for the benefit of future generations and Freeport East.

Unit B, Railway Triangle, Portsmouth – Perfect Score of 45/45

The site is known for its sensitive location within an existing business park and immediately adjacent to a railway, therefore the team’s focus was on maintaining stakeholder operations and a safe site from the outset. The perfect score achieved reflects the team’s dedication to these critical items. Additionally, the team exceeded KPI for the Employment and Skills Plan in collaboration with the local authority; respect and support for the community were high on the team’s agenda.

Assan Panel, Gateway 14, Stowmarket– Excellent Score of 43/45

The project team have been recognised for their proactive community engagement, particularly in education engagement and skills development. Our team are partnering with Mid Suffolk Council, DWP, schools and colleges to run initiatives that support young people into construction careers. These actions are resulting in significant and long term social value being delivered in the community.

Skills & Innovation Centre, Gateway 14, Stowmarket – Excellent Score of 43/45

The CCS Monitor awarded high marks for sustainability and innovation, characterised by off-site manufacture, renewable energy installations, and the implementation of a carbon reduction/net zero plan, all noted as industry-leading examples.

Looking Ahead

Our 2025 CCS scores underline our commitment and ambition to setting and achieving high standards that are used as a benchmark for excellence across the industry. Each award and high score reinforces our reputation as a considerate, community-focused contractor.

As we move forward, we will continue to build on this success, share best practice across the industry, and ensure every project goes the extra mile when respecting the community, caring for the environment, and valuing our workforce.

Naim Basha, Director / Co-founder of Wilten Construction, said: “Our people and supply chain are committed to working together to champion change in construction, now and for the future. This is evident in the Excellent and Outstanding scores we have received, along with the two Bronze Awards. We are incredibly proud to be recognised at this National level, and working in partnership with our clients, supply chain, and third parties, we will continue to develop and implement best practice to improve workforce wellbeing and community relations, and reduce our environmental impact”.
