Traffix operates at the forefront of the Traffic and Event Management sectors. We believe that we have a responsibility to address the economic, environmental and social impacts of our business to meet the challenges and opportunities that we face
During the recent United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP26), it was agreed that in the UK legislation has to be in place by 2023 for a plan to achieve net zero carbon. We all have our part to play in meeting this challenge, our customers are already asking us about our sustainability plans.
Whilst we have always considered our impact on the environment, we are introducing CONE – Consider Our Natural Environment. CONE is our plan of action towards becoming a net zero carbon company with sustainability at the core of all that we do. To achieve net zero carbon will require a step change in several areas of our business, however, we are being driven by the needs of the planet and our government, therefore CONE will help drive us towards achieving our sustainability goals.
When considering our impact on the world from the work that we do, sustainability has three main pillars: economic, environmental, and social. These three pillars are informally referred to as people, planet, and profits. We have set ourselves a set of ambitious goals towards a more sustainable future…
- Save energy. By using less energy, you can help to reduce carbon emissions.
- Use reusable alternatives.
- Go paperless. (where possible)
- Use renewable energy by (exploring alternative sources of energy)
- Recycle and reuse (which we are already doing to some extent)
- Educate our staff and potentially support to them with initiatives at home
- Donate unused items.
- Buy Fairtrade products.
- Support and work with local communities
- Be a beacon a company prepared to consider its impacts on the world we live in today
Our focus has always been on creating safe journeys for road users and pedestrians. The introduction of CONE is our contribution to ensuring safe journeys for generations to come.
