Our environment and innovation
Reducing greenhouse gas emissions
Facilitate the transition to low carbon economy with providing the latest products and services to our customers.
Constantly improving our greenhouse gas data and collection to inform the operational reductions that needs to take place for our climate.
The journey to zero waste to landfill
With a small percentage left, we are almost at our goal with having zero waste to go to landfill. We are working with partners for constantly improvements.
Reduce packaging waste
This is the aim for all our products. Accurate data collection and collaboration is the way to get us there.
The switch to renewables and the drive towards the low carbon economy
There’s a lot of change in our sector, especially around heating technologies. The level of disruption this represents for our customers shouldn’t be underestimated. The plumbing and heating sector, like all industries, has a responsibility to protect the planet and to safeguard the resources that we have for future generations.
Innovation, and emerging technologies such as ground and air heat pumps, hydrogen, and network heating, will play a key role in facilitating our own and our customers journey to lower the greenhouse gas emissions.
A big part of what we’re doing now is ensuring that we have the leading propositions in these more efficient technologies, that we understand them, and that we support our customers in making choices around products and services that will improve their environmental performance.

Supporting our customers as we move towards low carbon economy, renewables, and more carbon efficient products
We are committed to supporting customers in reducing their environmental impacts. This goes beyond offering more carbon efficient options for existing technologies and also includes the introduction of other innovative and energy saving products, such as air or ground source heat pumps, hydrogen and network heating, as well as heat saving and online energy saving tools. This includes:
- Product Selector Guides: Heat loss calculator | Radiator selector | Refrigeration Selector | Shower Selector
- Trade Guides & Information: Renewables | Boiler equipment | Reducing waste | Smart showering | Energy efficient smart home heating
But that’s not all, we are also committed to supporting our customers in getting the information, upskilling, and guidance they need when it comes to finding out about renewables and other clean technologies.
