Tackling climate change
Committed to reducing carbon emissions
Net zero
no later
than 2050
Climate change demands urgent action, and we’re delivering measurable progress. Committed to science-based targets, we’ve cut COâ‚‚ emissions by 19% since 2022 using proven technologies, with a clear strategy for further reductions.
While scaling existing solutions today, we’re also integrating emerging innovations to accelerate our path to net zero by 2050. This dual approach ensures both immediate impact and long-term transformation.
Plans to 2030
Changes we are making to improve the environment
Electric vehicles
We’re launching our electric refuse vehicle fleet to cut UK air pollution and advance our Net Zero 2050 goal. These zero-emission trucks demonstrate our commitment to cleaner communities and sustainable waste management—turning environmental responsibility into tangible action.
Community projects
Techno Guard is pursuing partnerships with nonprofit environmental funds, which supports lasting ecological projects through corporate-funded grants. By aligning with organisations that distribute environmental tax credits or green investments, we aim to secure funding that amplifies our sustainability mission—turning waste innovation into measurable planet-positive impact.
