Integra Buildings honoured with King’s Award for championing sustainability in construction

Modular construction business Integra Buildings has received royal recognition for its approach to sustainability. Integra was honoured in the Sustainable Development category of The King’s Award for Enterprise, alongside just 26 other companies nationwide. 

The King’s Awards celebrate outstanding achievement, ingenuity and success. The Sustainable Development award honours commercially successful products, services and management that benefit the environment, society and the economy. 

Winners of The King’s Awards are recognised by His Majesty The King as among the country’s best companies. More than 8,000 companies have been recognised since the King’s Awards for Enterprise began in 1965, with winners holding the award for five years. 

Recipients pass a robust assessment process, judged by experts from industry, academia, the voluntary sector and senior officials in Whitehall. On that basis, The King’s Awards for Enterprise recipients are recommended by the Prime Minister and approved by His Majesty The King.  

Founded 28 years ago and now employing 160 people, Integra works with high-profile private and public sector clients, providing bespoke modular solutions in sectors ranging from sport and education to health and defence. 

Integra Buildings CEO Gary Parker said: “Receiving The King’s Award for Enterprise is a tremendous honour for our business and all of our team. This award reflects and rewards the total commitment we have across our business to excellence in project performance and delivery. It also recognises our commitment to adopting sustainable policies and practices in everything we do.  

“Modular building has so many advantages over traditional methods of construction; one of those being that it is inherently more sustainable. We passionately believe that the future of construction is modular and that the companies embracing sustainability will be the most successful for many years to come.”  

The King’s Award commended Integra for “challenging the boundaries of what is possible in sustainable construction through bespoke design and offsite manufacturing”.
