As part of our drive to reduce our carbon emissions we have been working with Zellar to calculate our carbon footprint for our Aston Down and Lochgelly manufacturing locations.

Our total emissions for 2023 equate to.

Aston Down        7.2T CO2 previously 33T CO2 in 2022.

Lochgelly             29T CO2

 

Reducing Emissions

We’re reviewing all our processes to identify the areas of the business with the highest energy usage.  A plan will then be implemented to reduce these emissions.

51% of our energy usage at the Aston Down site is produced by our 32 KW solar PV array and the remainder of our energy is now provided by 100% renewable sources.

 

Carbon Offsetting

We have offset 60 T CO2 emissions by partnering with a planting project in Nottinghamshire, contributing to local environmental conservation efforts. future.

 

Biodiversity

We are supporting biodiversity projects within the locality of each manufacturing site.

  • Seawilding, based at Loch Craignish, Argyll.  This is the UK's first community-led native oyster and seagrass restoration project. The aim is to restore lost biodiversity, sequester carbon, and to create green jobs. They’re pioneering low-cost, best-practice marine habitat restoration methodologies and empowering other coastal communities to do the same.  

 

‘Salmon to Salmon Springs’ project which aims to reopen the river Frome for fish migration, in particular the iconic Atlantic salmon.  The improvement to habitat, fish pass structures and waterflow is from Stroud out to the river Severn.

 

Community Projects
