How we’re fighting climate change
Embodied carbon of our products Our products are carbon neutral, and we are the first business in our industry to include the cost of carbon in our products. We consider this an investment in present and future generations, and simply a cost of doing business. We calculate the embodied carbon of our products, from the raw material to the manufacturing gate, using industry recognised ISO standards. We have reduced the carbon footprint of our products through smart design and efficient manufacturing. While the embodied carbon of our products is low, they still do have a carbon impact. We mitigate this through our Carbon Neutral Product Initiative by offsetting the equivalent emissions using certified carbon credits. These carbon credits are generated from projects focused on renewable energy and fuel switching around the world.
The climate crisis is the biggest issue of our generation. As a product designer and manufacturer, we have an opportunity to help improve the carbon impact of our industry.
Our operational carbon emissions We are a carbon neutral business. We actively monitor the carbon emissions of our entire operation to better understand our carbon footprint and how we can further reduce emissions. We have an internal strategy to reduce our carbon emissions and have successfully delivered a number of carbon reduction initiatives within our operations. Any carbon emissions that are currently unavoidable are offset through certified carbon credits. We have a commitment to purchase only verified carbon credits that are retired on robust registers to ensure we are driving positive change.
