Commitment to achieving Net Zero

Medical Graphics UK Ltd., is committed to achieving Net Zero emissions by 2045

 

Baseline Emissions Footprint

Baseline emissions are a record of the greenhouse gases that have been produced in the past and were produced prior to the introduction of any strategies to reduce emissions. Baseline emissions are the reference point against which emissions reduction can be measured.

Baseline Year 2022

Additional Details relating to the Baseline Emissions Calculations

Medical Graphics UK Ltd., is using 2022 as its baseline for Scopes 1 & 2. As there has been no previous reporting, Medical Graphics UK feel that 2022 should provide the baseline figure.

Medical Graphics will therefore, monitor emissions through 2024 and update the CRP in January 2025

Emissions Reduction Targets

To continue our progress to achieving Net Zero, we have adopted the following carbon reduction targets:-

  • Decrease our emissions to 175.36 by 2030. This is a reduction of 20% compared to the baseline year emissions.
  • Carbon Reduction Projects

In order to achieve our target of Net Zero, Medical Graphics UK have adopted the following policies:-

· Using TEAMS meetings wherever possible to reduce cost of travel and the use of motor vehicles to attend face to face meetings.

· Continue to be very active in raising awareness among its employees to reduce the environmental impact of emissions. Many awareness-raising activities are promoted within the company on topics such as energy saving, renewable energy sources, conscious use of natural resources and lifestyle changes, to promote sustainable behavior such as, for example, switching off devices not in use and minimising the use of printed paper by using digital methods

· Introduce weekly planning meetings with all field based staff to encourage transfer of jobs to other members of the team to reduce the amount of travel around the country.

· As and when company vehicles are renewed, they are being replaced with PHEV or completely electric vehicles, where feasible.

· All packing is recycled.

· Implementation of solar panels

· Provision of external bike storage facilities to support staff commuting

· Embedding Net Zero into job descriptions and performance reviews and linking Net Zero targets
