Why work with us?

By working with NBS Ltd, you benefit from our experience, expertise and commitment to quality, while also supporting the wider recovery of the river. All profits generated through NBS are reinvested directly into Tees Rivers Trust, helping to deliver a whole-catchment approach to river restoration, biodiversity recovery and community engagement across the Tees. This ensures our commercial work creates lasting environmental and social value, strengthening local ecosystems and the communities that depend on them.
