Our sustainability commitment
We measure our footprint with Trace for event emissions and Climate Essentials for HQ operations
These tools let us track energy use, transport, waste and staff travel, and benchmark results against industry standards. They also give us clear pathways to reduce emissions each year and stay on track for net zero.
Cleaner transport
Fully electric delivery fleet. Route planning that reduces mileage. Support for cycling, walking and public transport.
Energy efficiency
100% LED fixtures. Renewable energy at our premises. Solar installation planned, subject to approval.
Reducing waste
Recycling across operations. Donations of redunandant kit and scenery to schools, shelters and charities. Paperless office transition.
Ethical sourcing
Supplier standards on labour rights, environmental performance and the Modern Slavery Act. Many partners also hold ISO 14001.
Material innovation
R&D into recyclable scenic solutions as alternatives to traditional set building.
Community focus
Local crew and suppliers where possible. Surplus materials shared within the community.
How we’re improving
