Sustainability is not just a buzzword or a fashionable premise; it’s an entire framework and way of acting consciously for a brighter future, which is why, here at Warmtronics we are doing all that we can to minimise our carbon footprint and maximise our efforts in contribution to net zero goals.
At its core, UCLA states “Sustainability presumes that resources are finite, and should be used conservatively and wisely with a view to long-term priorities and consequences of the ways in which resources are used.”
Effective sustainability balances our needs with those of the planet and future generations. It is important for environmental preservation, economic stability, quality of life and ethical responsibility and our collective efforts can really make a difference. It’s about impactful choices every day and the more we do, the greater the difference, here’s some ideas:
- Unplug Devices and Appliances.
- Use Energy-Efficient Light Bulbs.
- Recycle When You Can.
- Cut Back on Water Usage.
- Plant a Tree.
- Consume Less Meat.
- Reduce Unnecessary Waste.
- Reuse as Much as Possible.
In a world where we are seeing and feeling the impact of dramatic weather conditions and climate change, resource depletion, and environmental degradation, embracing sustainability is not an option—it’s an imperative. As stated by the United Nations, emissions need to be reduced by 45% by 2030 to reach net zero by 2050. A target that is looming fast but worryingly feels out of grasp so here’s what we are doing to help:
- We recycle and reuse our heat mats, send them back to us and we will refresh the metal work, repaint them, replace parts and refresh them to be as good as new
- We have extended product life by using sustainable rubber materials
- We use fully recycled packaging
- We clean, fix and repair all aged units
- We have changed our delivery and logistics strategy to use electric vehicles and map out efficient journeys
- We donate second hand heat mats to charity
- We source local materials and local suppliers to our factories so there is less delivery mileage
- We support local jobs and the economy and fully UK manufactured
