Sustainability - Net Zero

Carbon Reduction Plan & Sustainability Commitment

Infrared Heating Panels Ltd is committed to reducing its environmental impact and supporting the transition to a low-carbon economy. This Carbon Reduction Plan outlines our approach to emissions management, sustainability initiatives and our commitment to achieving Net Zero emissions.

Our plan has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of PPN 06/21 and relevant UK Government guidance.


Commitment to Net Zero

Infrared Heating Panels Ltd is committed to achieving Net Zero emissions by 2030. We are actively reducing our carbon footprint through operational changes, responsible procurement and the adoption of low-carbon technologies.

Emissions Reduction Targets

In order to support our Net Zero commitment, we have adopted clear carbon reduction targets. Over the next five years, we project emissions will reduce to 0.481 tCO2e, representing an overall reduction of approximately 85% from our baseline.

Completed Carbon Reduction Initiatives

The following environmental management measures have been implemented since the 2022 baseline year. These initiatives have achieved an estimated reduction of 3 tCO2e, equivalent to a 23% reduction against baseline emissions.

  • Transition to energy-efficient LED lighting
  • Adoption of infrared heating across operational premises
  • Moving approximately 90% of client meetings to online platforms

Future Carbon Reduction Measures

We continue to identify further opportunities to reduce emissions across all areas of our business. Planned initiatives include:

  • Operations: Ensuring all premises operate on low-carbon or carbon-neutral systems wherever practicable
  • Products: Working with manufacturing partners to reduce product lifecycle emissions and increase efficiency
  • Service Delivery: Transitioning to an electrified vehicle fleet to support surveys, audits and site visits
  • Recycled Materials: Increasing the use of recycled and responsibly sourced materials
  • Local Sourcing: Reducing transport emissions through local and regional supply chains
  • Waste Management: Improving recycling and responsible disposal of waste materials
  • Energy Conservation: Promoting energy-saving practices internally and with clients
