Our factory has also achieved a BREEAM rating of ‘VERY GOOD’ due to a number of initiatives, including:
Rainwater Harvesting
We are able to collect 26,000 litres of rainwater on site and distribute it across our factory, offices and warehouse units.
Solar PV
We have photo voltaic panels which contribute to the electricity we use, with any overcapacity being fed to the National Grid.
Intelligent lighting
Within our offices and factories, we have controls and sensors to ensure that the internal LED lighting yields significant energy savings by gauging staff presence and sunlight levels.
Natural Ventilation
Our passive and natural ventilation system regulates the internal air temperature. It makes use of natural forces to source and circulate air to and from internal spaces. Not only does this provide cleaner air, it also reduces carbon emissions.
Reduction in paper
We have an electronic paperless system, which allows us to keep paper usage to an absolute minimum.
Single use plastic free
We each have our own named mugs and water bottles, guests mugs and glass cups, as well as china crockery and metal cutlery as we firmly believe we should not be using single use plastic (no plastic forks, paper plates, plastic cups…)
Car pool scheme
Many of us also car share to work to save on carbon emissions and number of cars on the road.
