He says, “We recently upgraded our building which included replacing the old roof with a thermally efficient one. This allowed us to install almost 1300 solar panels which offers us more than 50% of our demand. This gives us an annual saving in carbon of 95.81 tonnes, equivalent to almost 6,000 trees planted, which assists us on our journey to achieving Net Zero targets. We are absolutely delighted that when our building was checked for energy efficiency, we moved up to an A rated building, which is very good for a commercial building.”

The roof isn’t the only initiative our company has adopted on our mission to Net Zero as Stan further explains, “Our wood waste is collected by a central extraction system, which not only keeps our workplace clean but allows us to use the wood waste to generate hot water and heat for our processing. Alongside the move to LED lighting to illuminate our processes, it keeps us very comfortable as we work on creating high-quality products for our customers. Our doorsets have an expected life cycle of 20 years, and we have many cases where well-made and correctly specified doorsets function perfectly well after 40 years which further aids our planet and is a testament to the hard work, expertise and experience of our fantastic team.”
