Our first aim is to incorporate the following features, which focus on our direct emissions, reducing our carbon footprint :
using energy saving light bulbs and energy efficient equipment.
allowing staff to have home near our offices & factory avoiding the need to travel long distances.
using public transport when possible.
using teleconferencing facilities when possible to avoid the need to travel to meetings.
minimising the amount of waste through reduction, recovery and recycling.
recycling waste paper, print cartridges, electronic equipment and kitchen waste to eliminate methane production in landfill.
regularly servicing and maintaining all of our tankers and company cars to ensure fuel efficiency.
encouraging our clients to purchase in bulk with neighbours to save fuel on delivery and decrease CO2 emissions.
training all employees on environmental issues to ensure full participation.
Although all sensible CO2 reduction steps are taken, it is impossible for us (and most other people and businesses) to completely eliminate our carbon footprint.
Therefore, our second aim is to develop an offset strategy by purchasing high quality offset credits for those CO2 emissions we cannot reduce. The intention of these credits is to reduce emissions somewhere else in the world by investing into projects or technologies that actively help to reduce global CO2 levels.
Therefore, we are planting several million trees in our forests nearby, by Aerial seeding done personally by our Directors from an equipped aircraft.
Oil and gas will continue to provide a relevant share of the world’s energy needs in this century; therefore, we recognise the challenge of meeting future energy demand and the importance of stimulating climate change issues.
As an independent Lubricant manufacturer, we believe action is required to stabilise greenhouse gas emissions in an equitable and responsible way.
As a corporate responsible company, we are taking immediate action and encouraging others to act.
To save fuel on delivery and decrease CO2 emissions, buy in bulk or with a neighbour, and the more you buy, the more money you save
