Environment

Throughout the world we are all taking a greater interest in the environment whether it is in the form of re-cycling or evaluating the energy efficiency of household goods. At Profix we have had a comprehensive environmental policy for several years, which includes the recycling of materials within our operation and the processing of materials taken from site during refurbishment projects and was awarded ISO 14001 environmental standard in 2009.

We also understand the implications of the product we install and that is why we have worked with our suppliers to improve levels of energy efficiency. Our Protherm range of windows and doors are Energy Rated and approved by The Energy Saving Trust and improve the heat retention properties for customers thus saving additional money on energy costs.

We have restricted our vehicles to 57mph which has reduced our emissions and fuel consumption by 18%. When we did this study we understood that our motorway speed would reduce and would therefore increase labour costs, but the saving in fuel has balanced the cost associated with this and so we have reduced our carbon foot print for deliveries without increasing costs. Reducing speed on motorways also contributes to better traffic management and increased driver safety.
