Restoring our planet together
We are committed to restoring our planet and protecting biodiversity. We recognise that no one is perfect and that we have work to do to become carbon neutral. So whilst we’re working on reducing our emissions, we will be offsetting every month through tree planting and carbon offsetting projects across the world. We also offset any business based carbon annually.
Sustainability Policy
Fusion Events and Weddings recognise that businesses can have a negative impact on the environment. We are committed, and enjoy, finding ways in which we can reduce the impact of our work both in the office and onsite at events and weddings.
It is our policy to:
- Reduce, reuse and recycle our waste, sending only unavoidable items to landfill. Update: We are proud as a business to have sent zero waste to landfill in 2021, and will continue this in the years to come
- Avoid the use of paper wherever possible. All invoices, contracts and quotes are sent via email as PDF files and we ask clients to return them electronically too
- Recycle equipment that is no longer of use to the company. We donate items to local community groups and charities that are no longer in use
- Keep energy usage low. Making use of low energy light bulbs in our office, and ensuring that electronics are turned off when not in use
- Use a sustainable, renewable and ethical responsible energy supplier, with the aim for all energy used in our office to be from 100% renewable sources.
- Reuse waste paper where possible, making use of the blank side for notes etc.
- Purchase products made with recycled materials rather than new. All purchased products are considered and where possible, sourced from an ethical and sustainable supplier
- Use low impact, plant-based cleaning products in the office and onsite
- Use low impact transport for business travel. Update: We travel to and from meetings and events in a hybrid vehicle and offset any mileage done using the petrol element of the vehicle
- Avoid unnecessary travel by making use of video calls and conferencing, telephone and email. When using video conferencing software we consider the ethical merits of the provider
- Offset any unavoidable emissions by planting trees and investing in carbon capture projects in the UK and worldwide
We are continuously updating and improving our sustainability knowledge and will update our policy to reflect the changes in the business on a regular basis. If you have any questions regarding our sustainability policy, please get in touch.
