Environmental Policy

Saveheat Group recognises its responsibility to care for and protect the environment.

We are fully committed to improving environmental performance across all of our business activities and will encourage our business partners and members of the wider community to join us in this effort.

We have assessed our key impacts to be in the areas of:

  • Energy use
  • Raw material use
  • Waste generation
  • Water use
  • Transport
  • Procurement

Our environmentally-friendly choices

We:

  • Adopt the highest environmental standards in all areas of operation, meeting and exceeding all relevant legislative requirements
  • Assess our organisational activities and identify areas where we can minimise impacts
  • Minimise waste through careful and efficient use of all materials and energy
  • Purchase sustainable products wherever feasible [e.g. recycled, FSC or low environmental impact products and energy from renewable sources]
  • Publicise our environmental position
  • Train personnel in good environmental practice and encourage personal involvement in environmental action
  • Reduce risks from environmental, health or safety hazards for personnel and others in the vicinity of our operations
  • Adopt an environmentally sound transport strategy
    Include environmental and ethical considerations in investment decisions where appropriate
  • Assist in developing solutions to environmental problems
    Continually assess the environmental impact of all our operations

We have developed a series of action plans to supplement each of its environmental policy objectives.

These are as follows:

Energy use

  • Ensure offices are properly insulated
  • Use energy monitors and thermostats to identify areas of wasted electrical energy
  • Encourage energy consumption by turning off lights and electrical equipment when not in use

Raw material usage

  • Qualify quantities needed to avoid excess materials
  • Recycle excess materials.

Waste generation

  • Train personnel and clients about recycling opportunities
  • Use specialist green recycling facilities where possible but always dispose of waste responsibly
  • Recycle on site using cuttings for compost or using mulching mowers when appropriate
  • Encourage regular maintenance to reduce waste quantities

Water use

  • Encourage the use of recycled water
  • Only use as much water as is needed

Transport

  • Service vehicles regularly to maximise engine and tyre efficiency
  • Ensure personnel drive smoothly to reduce fuel consumption
  • Plan daily activities to reduce mileage
  • Reduce load weight when possible, to reduce fuel consumption

Procurement

  • Source local suppliers when possible
  • Ensure materials are from sustainable sources
  • Check that suppliers’ environmental credentials are compatible with our own environmental objectives
