Endurance Doors continues carbon offsetting commitment

Endurance Doors says it is building on its ‘already impressive’ commitment to sustainability.

As part of its environmental policies, the manufacturer has used carbon offsetting since 2022 to compensate for any unpreventable carbon emissions caused by its operations.

The business has now entered into a new partnership with Carbon Neutral Britain that will enable it to continue this activity.

Formed in 2020, Carbon Neutral Britain is said to be one of the UK’s largest carbon offsetting organisations. It is supported by individuals and organisations who are looking to play a positive and proactive role in combating climate change.

By investing in different carbon capture or reduction projects around the world, Carbon Neutral Britain enables its partners to ‘balance out’ their carbon footprint.

To date, it is reported to have backed projects that have seen additional trees planted in UK woodland, in the Amazon rainforest, and in African mangrove forests. It is also said to have been instrumental in the construction of new wind and solar energy farms.

According to Endurance Doors, it plans to work with Carbon Neutral Britain to become a fully and independently verified carbon neutral organisation certified to the highest global standards.

Carbon offsetting is just one of the ways in which Endurance Doors says it is working to minimise its environmental impact.

The business also utilises energy from renewable sources, including solar panels on its factory roof, and makes widespread use of electric vehicles.

In addition, it sends zero waste to landfill, employs recycled materials wherever possible, and uses timber to produce its doors from trees grown in sustainably managed, PEFC and FSC certified North European forests.

Andrew Speakman, commercial director at Endurance Doors, said: “Endurance Doors is proud to be at the forefront of developing more sustainable solutions for the fenestration market.

“We recognise the urgent need for all individuals and organisations to do more to combat the environmental issues facing our planet. We also know that many homeowners are looking to do their part by making more environmentally responsible product choices.

“To address both requirements, we never stop looking for ways to reduce our carbon footprint, to control our resource consumption and to minimise our waste contribution.

“Our new partnership with Carbon Neutral Britain reflects that commitment to ever higher standards of environmental performance.”
