It is our stated aim to make the general environment a better place by reducing the reliance on fossil fuel for energy, reducing transport movements and eliminating landfill.

 

We operate an open-book policy and will seek to involve any stakeholders, including local residents in our plans at the earliest opportunity. We aim to be able to allay any fear that individuals may have concerning the effects of living near to one of our units. We also practice what we preach.  Our MD lives with his young family within 600m of one of our plants and one of our shareholders with his equally young family within 100m!!
