London Best Practice Guidance

The London Best Practice Guidance (BPG) affects Non-Road Mobile Machinery (NRMM) operating on sites within Greater London. The London BPG has been developed to control dust and emissions from construction and demolition. The requirements are defined according to the risk level defined for each site.

'Sensitive Receptors' include schools, hospitals and housing

Major developments as referred to by the Mayor of London or a London Borough would also be defined as high risk sites.

For high risk sites, control measures that should be used include:

• All non-road mobile machinery (NRMM) to use ultra low sulphur diesel (ULSD)
• NRMM greater than 37kW to be fitted with approved exhaust after treatment
• On-road vehicles to comply with the requirements of the London Low Emission Zone (LEZ)
• Hard surfacing, cleaning and appropriate speed limits on all haul routes
• All loads entering and leaving sites to be covered

For further information on the London BPG visit www.london.gov.uk/mayor/environment/air_quality/construction-dust.jsp

The Eminox Continuously Regenerating Trap (CRT) and Fuel Borne Catalyst (FBC) systems are approved for use as part of the London BPG and are included on the Energy Saving Trust (EST) NRMM register of approved exhaust after treatment devices and suppliers.

Our emissions products have been used extensively as part of air quality improvement programmes across Europe, with almost 60,000 systems supplied to date.

Eminox systems are available as complete purchase packages or filter hire packages.
