Our Electric Vehicle Fleet is Growing
We are delighted to announce that as of November 2024, 17% of our fleet is electric and all other vehicles are within 3 years old and have ad-blue systems along with the latest and most economical engines.
At Brooklands we have adopted many green initiatives to reduce our carbon footprint and inspire positive change within employees and customers. With our opertatives out on the road every day visiting sites, we know the importance of addressing our fleet and the impact it has on the environments.
There are many other green initiatives that we have adopted at Brooklands to help reduce our carbon foot print which include;
Online esimates – Google Earth, images and video calls gives us all the information we need to provide a quote for the cleaning services that our clients require reducing unnecessary journeys.
Hybrid meetings – asking people to join a meeting virtually also helps to reduce people making long and unnecessary journeys that release greenhouse gases and other air pollutants into the atmosphere. Using teams, we find that meetings and interviews can be just as engaging as an in-person meeting, allowing us to collaborate effectively with staff and delegates wherever they are in the world!
Commuting schemes – by carefully planning the most economical routes for our technicians to visit client’s sites we reduce the miles our team travel and our carbon footprint.
Regional teams – we make strategic hiring decisions to have our technicians based in several regions throughout the UK. They are provided with vehicles, plant, and equipment so they can depart from their home addresses straight to site locations throughout the UK minimising travel, fuel consumption and carbon emissions.
New vehicles – our fleet consists of newer vehicles that are equipped with ad-blue and where possible and feasible, selecting and using hybrid and / or 100% electric vehicles.
Educating our employees – we develop our team’s understanding of sustainable practices by providing training sessions on topics such as energy efficiency, waste management and water conservation. Educating employees on these things gives them the knowledge to not only be more environmentally friendly in their workplace but also in their own homes.
This proactive approach to creating a sustainable workplace at Brooklands has made us more eco – friendly and environmentally conscious.
At Brooklands we are committed to boosting our green credentials year on year. Constantly looking at ways to introduce new practices to incorporate more green way of life into our cleaning and our business,
