Proud to be a Real Living Wage Employer

At Dura, we believe fair pay should never depend on age. That’s why we pay the Real Living Wage to everyone, regardless of how old they are, great news for school and college leavers, who can begin their careers knowing they are paid fairly from day one.

We go beyond statutory minimum pay rates by paying the Real Living Wage, which is independently calculated to reflect the real cost of living. Becoming a Real Living Wage employer demonstrates our commitment to fairness, respect and investing in our people. It’s one of the ways we support our teams and create a positive, inclusive working environment across our business.

At Shenley Wood and Lovat Fields Retirement Villages in Milton Keynes, ageing timber balconies needed a safer, longer-lasting replacement.

Working with The ExtraCare Charitable Trust and First in Service, Dura delivered a fully non-combustible aluminium decking and unique substructure solution across both occupied retirement communities.

Using Dura Deck® Aluminium and d² Quickspan® Beam, the project achieved:

✅ Improved fire safety compliance
✅ Reduced maintenance requirements
✅ Faster, lower-disruption installation
✅ Enhanced slip resistance and durability
✅ Lower material use with improved spanning capability

A strong example of how remediation projects can improve safety, performance and resident experience at the same time.

📢 We're exhibiting at TransCityRail Scotland next week!

With major change across the rail sector, now is the time to rethink how infrastructure is designed, delivered and maintained.

At Dura, we provide low-carbon GRP walkway and access solutions that support safer, more efficient rail projects with long-term performance built in.

Come and talk to us about delivering more sustainable infrastructure.

Environmental transparency is now essential across infrastructure projects.

At Dura, we design and manufacture composite walkway and access systems supported by third-party verified Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs).

Our products provide embodied carbon data for specification, whole-life carbon assessment and Scope 3 reporting.

The d² range is carbon-engineered by design, fully repurposable at end of use, and supported by lifecycle assessment data aligned to recognised international standards.

Clear data drives smarter, lower carbon infrastructure decisions.

Our teams have been busy out and about this week!

Our Client Success Team joined industry conversations at UKREiiF, while our Marine team attended the TYHA Code of Practice event.

As a UK manufacturer of GRP and non-combustible aluminium walkway systems for rail, high-rise, power, marine and infrastructure environments, these events are a valuable opportunity to connect with partners, share insight and discuss the future of lower carbon infrastructure.

At Dura, we’re focused on delivering high-performance access solutions across both GRP and aluminium systems, while continuing to drive innovation in closed-loop GRP repurposing, helping reduce landfill and lower embodied carbon across infrastructure projects.

Great to see our teams representing Dura and continuing these important conversations across the industry 👏

We’re proud to share that Dura Composites has been honoured with an incredible fourth King’s Award for Enterprise, this time for Sustainability 🎉

This recognition means a great deal to us. It reflects how our manufacturing is evolving, with circular thinking becoming a core part of how we design and build.

Our focus is on giving materials a longer life by repurposing them into durable, engineered solutions that reduce environmental impact over time.

This award follows previous recognition for International Trade in 2017 and Innovation in 2020 and 2024. It shows our continued commitment to developing smarter and more sustainable ways of working.

From our headquarters in Essex, we’re supporting local jobs while delivering projects across the UK and internationally.

Thank you to our team, partners and clients for supporting what we believe is a better, more responsible way to build for the future.

What does meaningful community impact look like on a major infrastructure project?

For High Speed Two Limited (HS2 Ltd) it means going beyond construction - reducing disruption, listening to communities, and giving something back.

Supporting Balfour Beatty VINCI in delivering HS2’s community commitments, Dura Composites was proud to contribute to the Community Investment programme at Ward End Wellbeing Centre.

The centre is a vital local hub, supporting wellbeing, inclusion and connection. To enhance accessibility, Dura designed, fabricated and supplied a new public access ramp, helping ensure the space is safe and welcoming for everyone.

Manufactured off-site at our SmartFAB facility, the prefabricated GRP ramp minimised disruption to a busy community setting. Built using our low embodied carbon d² components, it delivers a lightweight, durable solution that is fully recyclable at end of life.

A simple intervention, but one that delivers lasting value for the community it serves.

We’re proud to support BBV in turning HS2’s community commitments into real, tangible outcomes.
