Sustainability journey
From many years we have been supporting the sustainability push.
1991 – One of the 1st bodyshops in the UK to remove the use of 2-pack Isocyanate paints and replacing it with a water-based system.
Throughout the years we have supported mixed material recycling and partner with
specialist companies that help with the recycling as much waste as possible.
We have recently installed energy saving light bulbs throughout the business.
We have recently installed 2 x vehicle spraying ovens with ultra efficient gas fired burners.
We have recently invested in new environmentally friendly air-con system using the new R1234YF gas.
As of September 2023 we are taking receipt of our new Hybrid Courtesy Cars changing from petrol vehicles. This movement will continue as courtesy cars on the fleet are replaced. Objective is to have a full fleet of electric and hybrid courtesy vehicles by 2026.
We are very proud that both Abingdon and Reading sites have achieved carbon neutrality certification:
Abingdon Certificate
Reading Certificate
Both Abingdon and Reading will off-set its carbon usage against a Solar Photovoltaic Project which will be a step towards supporting the implementation and installation of grid-connected renewable solar energy power plants in India.
