Sustainability

What we’ve done so far
- Developed a carbon reduction plan
- Measured our Scope 1 & 2 emissions
- Allowed hybrid working where the roles allow it
- Replaced our warehouse lighting with LED lights
- Used Octopus Energy since 2018 to ensure that all our energy needs are from 100% renewable sources
- Replaced the lighting in two of the offices with movement controlled LED lighting
- Provided all warehouse staff with heated bodywarmers to reduce heating within warehouse during the colder months
- Provided a company electric bike for commuting
- Introduced an electric car into the fleet
- Replaced our older company van with a newer diesel van with the lowest emissions we could find. (At the time of replacement the range of electric vans just wasn’t sufficient for our needs).
- Partnered with The Recycling Partnership to remove all cardboard, plastic and paper waste for recycling
- Partnered with Sustain to provide a furniture recycling service to our clients
- Partnered with DPD to source the greenest possible solution for our couriered items
What we’ve still got to do…
- Start measuring scope 3 emissions so that we can work towards being truly net zero
- Replace our company van with an even lower emission solution when it’s due for renewal
- Promote our furniture recycling service to even more customers to allow them to meet their sustainability goals
- Gain accreditation for our work so far
