Tree Planting – Carbon Offsetting
Melting iron to create our products uses energy either electricity or gas in large quantities. We keep the amount of energy used by commissioning only British foundries who, use energy as frugally as possible and meet EU emission standards with regards to pollution (unlike their Chinese counterparts).
But there’s no escaping it, manufacturing our products creates carbon and that’s a fact so to offset this carbon we’ve just bought 350 native British broadleaved trees to plant along 5 acres of scrub land around our workshops here in North Devon.
We’ll bring you updates on the planting and the trees as soon as we have them delivered in from local tree nursery Bowhayes Trees in Devon
