For over 50 years, our family-run business, based in the heart of Horsham, has been dedicated to providing gold-standard fire detection systems. As we move forward, sustainability has become a core value in our operations. Here’s how we’re making strides towards a greener future.
Local Living, Local Working
Our commitment to sustainability starts with our team. Living and working in Horsham, many of our staff walk to our offices at the City Business Centre, significantly reducing our carbon footprint. Remote work options further lessen the need for commuting, showcasing our dedication to eco-friendly practices.
Green Fleet and Local Sourcing
Recognising the impact of our service vehicles, we’ve invested in more economical and eco-friendly Mercedes vehicles, with possible future plans to transition to electric vehicles (EVs). Supporting local businesses is another pillar of our sustainability approach. We source our workwear and safety wear from a local embroidery company and utilise a local signwriting firm for our vehicle graphics and stickers.
Partnering for Carbon Reduction
Our journey towards carbon reduction is supported by Franklin Lawson Associates, a local Sussex-based advisor. Together, we’re implementing policies to lower our carbon emissions, beginning with an evaluation of our energy use and exploring renewable energy options. We’re also focusing on making our office environment more energy-efficient by installing solar film on our windows. We aim to reduce our reliance on fossil fuels and transition to greener energy suppliers. To streamline our operations and reduce paper waste, our engineers use tablets and smart technology. This not only enhances communication and efficiency but also aligns with our sustainability goals by minimising resource usage.
Recognised Commitment to Quality and Safety
Our dedication to quality and safety is reflected in our numerous certifications and memberships, including Construction Line Gold, FIA, BAFE, SafeContractor approval, and ISO 9001:2015 UKAS 8872 certification. These recognitions underline our commitment to maintaining high standards while pursuing sustainability.
Looking Ahead
Our sustainability journey is ongoing and it’s a responsibility we embrace. We are committed to continually exploring new ways to reduce our environmental impact and set an example in the fire detection industry.
