Around 50% of the UK’s CO2 emissions are attributed to the construction and operation of buildings. More often than not, we’re responsible for the heating, ventilation, lighting and air-conditioning in our customers’ buildings, which puts us in an ideal position to help them reduce their energy consumption. The average office wastes a colossal £6,000 every year simply by leaving equipment on at night and over the weekends. That is why our security patrols don’t just check for problems, but also turn off clients’ PCs and lights too.

We know that the best way to make our clients’ businesses more sustainable is to use less – less water, less energy, less paper, less plastic. Combine that with a smart approach to recycling and we can help them see their costs, as well as their footprint, go down.

CR is constantly evolving and the bar is always rising, but we know that we need to define, and then exceed targets. We want to increase transparency, benchmark ourselves and focus on measurable KPIs, and no where more so than where the environment is concerned.
