As a company, we take a proactive approach to reducing our environmental impact and are committed to protecting our natural resources. We’ve invested heavily in becoming ISO 14001 compliant and in green technologies across our UK sites, such as electric company vehicles, rainwater harvesting, energy efficiency, intelligent lighting and solar power. Bott Ltd is registered to and meets the requirements of the internationally recognised Environmental Management Standard - ISO 14001:2015 by NQA. We are also ISO 45001:2018 Occupational Health & Safety Management System (OHSMS) compliant, this ensures we protect the health, safety and wellbeing of your employees, visitors and anyone affected by our activities.

Our UK manufacturing facility in Bude, Cornwall, is one
of the largest employers in the region and we’re proud to maintain a positive impact on the local community through a variety of support initiatives. 

At bott, we recognise the need for us all to play our part in protecting the environment for future generations. We have an ongoing commitment to sustainability and are particularly focussed on recycling and on reducing consumption and waste to cut bott’s carbon footprint.

For example, since 2016 we have decreased our plastic packaging usage by 36%, or over 12 tons a year.

We are also working closely with our suppliers in this; for example, roof-racking systems previously were wrapped in plastic and delivered in boxes - they are now supplied on stillages (tailored reusable frames). This thinking is now being applied to other purchased items such as electrical parts.
