Skymark Packaging is a business which due to the nature of its Products consumes large quantities of natural resources and therefore has a sizable Carbon Footprint. As an environmentally conscious organisation, we cannot sit back and consider this level to be acceptable.
We have therefore launched two key energy reduction projects in 2018, with further developments planned in 2019 & 2020. Our current projects have seen us reduce our power consumption by Over 660,000kWh per annum – Enough to power 23 medium-sized UK Houses. We have achieved this feat by employing two main Technologies:
- British made and designed high efficiency LED lighting systems
- Free cooling systems for our chilled water requirements
We continue to explore efficient and beneficial technologies to further cement our position as a leader of innovation, not only for the
Products we supply but also the way in which we interact with our Environment.
To underline our environmental commitment, we subscribe to the International standard ISO 14001:2015, as well as associated environmental compliance obligations. We regularly undergo external audits to ensure we keep our impacts as controlled as possible and strive to be at the forefront of regulatory changes and developments. We achieve this feat together with our partners at BSI and Barbour Index.
