Our Sustainability and ESG Principles

To comply with, and exceed where practicable, all applicable legislation, regulations and codes of practice.
To integrate sustainability considerations into all our business decisions.
To ensure that all staff are fully aware of our sustainability Policy and are committed to implementing and improving it.
To minimise the impact on sustainability of all office and transportation activities.
To make clients and suppliers aware of our sustainability Policy, and encourage them to adopt sound, sustainable management practices.
To review, annually report, and to continually strive to improve our sustainability performance.

Our Sustainability Criteria

In relation to our fit out work we look at the following sustainability criteria:

Materials
Water
Waste
Carbon in operation

We adopt the following measures for all fit-out work:

Timber procurement: Confirm that all timber products are legally and responsibly sourced in accordance with the UK Government’s Timber Procurement Policy.
Volatile organic compounds: Assess products such as paints, varnishes, coatings, adhesives, sealants and any composite wood products. Specify low-VOC alternatives when available and practical.
Water efficient sanitary equipment: Where sanitary fittings are being upgraded select, when appropriate, options such as dual and/or low flush WC’s, waterless urinals and low flow taps with automatic off.
Site waste management: Ensure that each fit-out has a waste management plan to identify key waste streams and additional options for reuse, recycling or other management. Above all, avoiding sending waste to landfill.
Energy efficient lighting: Minimise energy demand associated with artificial lighting requirements, particularly during daylight hours. Select energy efficient lighting options – for example, we will use LED fittings where appropriate.

Recommendations for Assessment Methodologies

When selecting materials for a fit out we will consider the environmental impacts throughout their whole life cycle including: manufacturing, construction, finishing, operation, demolition and disposal. In addition to the embodied impacts of the manufacture and supply chain it is also important that we consider issues such as maintenance requirements and replacement intervals during operation.

We can also provide recommendations that are of relevance where buildings are being assessed using an environmental assessment methodology such as BREEAM or SKA rating.

Helping Our Communities: Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)

There are many worthy causes and local-based clubs, teams and schools to sponsor and for us we have always carefully chosen based upon our value of enabling growth, development and the capacity as a business to give back to particular local groups whom can further develop a sense of belonging and in turn motivate others to join and support them on their journeys.

Here are some of the teams, clubs and schools we are proud to have sponsored :

Local Primary School

A local primary school needed sponsorship so that their hand-picked students could compete at sporting and county events with school branded vests for visibility and recognition.

Speedway Rider Sponsorship

During the mid 200O’s Trevor Blake Fit Out sponsored Paul Hurray at the Speedway Championship. Paul is a British international motorcycle speedway rider whom competed in the British Speedway Championship and was selected to represent Great Britain as a part of the national speedway team in the 2001 Speedway World Cup Race-Off.

Smallfield Football and Sports Club

Wanting to aspire and achieve together the club’s junior football team ethos is to offer a challenging but supportive environment where children can strive for more and learn from their mistakes without any undue pressure or anxiety within a safe and motivational environment.

Prior to Covid-19 there were no football teams at the club and with diligent determination and consistent hard work through championing fundraising, sponsorship, donations and volunteers the clubhouse has been refurbished to provide full sports TV and an operational bar in an inclusive space for all members and their communities to enjoy and support the club and their achievements.

If you’re looking to find out more about Smallfield Football and Sports Club and how you can become involved, you can reach out to them via their website listed here or their Facebook pages here and here.

AFC Ewell Kids Football Team

AFC Ewell is an amateur FA Charter Standard football club based in Surrey. Run entirely by volunteers they have junior teams from U7 to U18, four senior teams, and an academy for children aged 4 to 7. As a club they cater for all abilities, focusing on fun, enjoyment and development whilst encouraging participation from everyone within their community.

Why We Sponsor Local Teams, Clubs & Educational Groups

As a commercial business operating within Surrey, Sussex, London, Kent and the surrounding South East counties we understand the commitment and resources it takes for smaller groups, individuals and teams to progress and want to highlight those we sponsor (see original article post on sponsorship) so they can enhance their impact upon their communities and the people within them.
