Ansvar : Customers

Sustainability

Ansvar is committed to improving energy efficiency wherever possible and taking a pro-active approach to reducing our carbon footprint.

This is how we’re working to reduce our carbon footprint:

  • Moving to a new office provided us with a 71.29% reduction in total energy usage (as per EPC), and a 79.53% decrease in Carbon Emissions (as per EPC)
  • The building is Rated BREEAM Excellent, putting it in the top 10% of UK new non-domestic buildings.
  • All lighting is high efficiency LED
  • Having PIR light sensors fitted throughout etc.
  • We have live plants in our office for decoration as well as the benefits they give the working environment, such as cleaner air and improving oxygen levels

Activities to manage our waste reduction have been in place for several years and we actively recycle the following waste products:

  • Paper - Ansvar is part of the Shred-it recycling program and recycle an amount equivalent to 50 trees each year
  • We don’t use paper or plastic cups – only cups and mugs that can be washed and re-used
  • Toner cartridges
  • Cardboard
  • Plastic bottles
  • Tin cans
  • And finally, 100% of our policy documents and brochures are sent electronically or by post (unless we are asked to supply printed versions for people with accessibility needs)
