Focus on sustainability

Christchurch International Airport Limited (CIAL) is an essential infrastructure for the city, region and the South Island of New Zealand, and is the first airport in the southern hemisphere to achieve carbon neutral status.

At Fulton Hogan, we’re proud that the work we do supports that focus on sustainability and we were thrilled to be part of this important piece of infrastructure that means so much to the business people and communities across Christchurch.

As part of an ongoing contract that has undergone multiple renewals, Fulton Hogan carries out a diverse range of pavement maintenance and construction works at the Airport. The scope of works include crack sealing, line marking, asphalt patching, pavement widening, bituminous resealing surface rejuvenation, as well as airfield lighting modifications.

Throughout the life of the contract, Fulton Hogan has introduced a number of environmentally and financially sustainable products, which has led to several awards, including CoolPave with LEA™ (low emissions asphalt) and the use of Gilsonite on low-traffic pavements to reduce ongoing maintenance costs.
