We have some great news to share with you.

The reuse of furniture and laboratory equipment pays off handsomely within the Russell Group of Universities!

16 of the 24 Russell Group Universities use our system. The Russell Group Universities generally consist of the most energy intensive due to research and lab activities. They are interested in savings that sustainability can bring.

Savings from procurement and waste disposal=  £2.7 million

Avoided carbon emissions from reduced manufacture= 1.5 million KGs CO2e

Avoided waste arises: 600 tonnes

We thought we would blog about the Russell Group because,  last week Warp It was pleased to welcome the University of Birmingham onto our system.

We are looking forward to helping the university improve their current method for reusing assets around the campus, for which they’ve already received many awards.

Birmingham follow on the heels of the University of Leeds who were the last Russell Group member  to sign up. 

 

Post script- Exeter University are now signed up!

If the CEO and senior management abandoned an organisation overnight and did not come back for one month.

The staff probably would not notice the difference.

If the porters or cleaners (and others in Facilities Management) did the same, after 3 days the organisation would not be able to function.
