Carbon Catchers? Yes!

There’s a UK company that’s pioneering carbon capture in the UK.

How do they do that?

They study each client’s energy use, and determine the best products to help not only reduce their carbon footprint but lower their utility bills at the same time.

Just look at these photos of the before and after of a recycling company (already a green business). Big difference right?

You bet it was!

They installed a IP65 low energy lighting system enabling the recycling center to save 46% in their energy costs! The expected payback? About 2 1/2 years.

That’s a great deal!

They help not just big warehouses, but office buildings, and new commercial construction too. But wait! They didn’t just stop with lighting, no, they also looked at the entire operation and submit suggestions to lower energy costs.

Such as:
Switching to a near paperless system
Car Sharing systems
Alternative transportation methods
and more…

This is a great model for all of us to follow, whether we’re based here or overseas.
