Sustainability journey

We have always been mindful and aware of the impact our industry has on the environment.

We’ve been leading the way in sustainable practices since 1991. As early adopters, we replaced conventional 2-pack Isocyanate paints with a water-based system, demonstrating our commitment to environmental progress.


Throughout the years we have supported mixed material recycling and partner with
specialist companies that help with the recycling as much waste as possible.


Recycling

  • Waste Metals – recycled.
  • Plastics (bumpers, plastic body panels, trims, etc) – recycled.
  • Paper, cardboard – recycled.
  • Electrical equipment – recycled (WEEE policy adhered to).
  • Waste paint materials – recycled or disposed of in a regulated and ethical manner.

Recent changes

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.
