Last Thursday, our team attended Bunzl’s Sustainability and Afforestation Event in Nottinghamshire, an inspiring day dedicated to environmental sustainability and hands-on climate action.
Our Head of ESG, Jeff Silver, Marketing & Content Creator, Crystal Barnard, and Office Administrator, Ola Ruszczak, joined industry experts to discuss the vital role of afforestation in sustainability. We gained valuable insights from sustainability leaders at ClimatePartner, Tork, and Bunzl Cleaning and Hygiene Supplies, who shared the latest trends and best practices in environmental conservation.
Planting 200 Trees for a Sustainable Future
One of the highlights of the day was planting 200 trees in May’s Wood – a growing native woodland in Cottam, Nottinghamshire. Managed by Forest Carbon, this 8-hectare project is set to absorb more than 6,600 tonnes of CO₂, significantly contributing to biodiversity and carbon reduction. By actively participating, we’re helping restore natural habitats and combat deforestation.
Events like this align perfectly with our Beyond Cleaning strategy, which extends beyond products and services to prioritise sustainable solutions with lasting impact. Our involvement in afforestation efforts highlights our proactive approach to sustainability, demonstrating that we don’t just talk about climate action – we take meaningful steps toward it.
It was great to join our partners at the afforestation event and demonstrate how, as a collective, we can all make a positive impact to the environment around us.
