Unusual - Sales, Service & Engineering Solutions 2025

THE CIRCULAR ECONOMY AND ETHICAL CITIZENSHIP At Unusual Rigging, sustainability has never been a slogan — it’s embedded in how we think, work and build. We've long championed circular economy principles, minimising waste, maximising resource efficiency, and prioritising the reuse and recycling of materials wherever possible. This commitment became even more tangible in July 2024, when we moved into our new purpose-built headquarters and research centre in Bugbrooke, Northamptonshire. Designed around circular economy principles, the facility has already earned multiple awards for sustainable design, energy performance and environmental innovation. Set within a rewilded landscape, the site supports both our operational needs and environmental goals — operating as a net positive facility in terms of Scope 1 and 2 emissions. Beyond our own footprint, we’re working with sustainability specialists HOPE Solutions on a transformative project aimed at redefining sustainability in the entertainment and events industry. Through deep diagnostics, stakeholder engagement and carbon planning, this initiative is setting a new benchmark for what sustainable rigging and production support can look like. Our approach is part of a wider commitment to Ethical Citizenship. Over the past year, we’ve been embedding a formal framework to help us lead with integrity, support communities and create a truly inclusive environment. Central to this is our Psychology of Leadership programme, which deepens our understanding of motivation, trust, and how to create empowering, safe spaces for all our people. As we grow, we remain rooted in the values that shaped our early days in a handful of portacabins. Today, Unusual Rigging is a global leader, proud to carry forward the legacy of our founder, Alan Jacobi (AJ), with a focus on innovation, responsibility and care in everything we do.
