VERDER, renowned for product innovation in industrial pumping solutions, has commissioned a report based on the Green House Gas Protocol to evaluate its carbon footprint of the company and the embedded footprint of its products.

Mike Heap, Sales and Marketing Director of VERDER explains: “We’ve worked hard to develop sustainable products for our customers, but we also wanted to ensure we are doing our bit for the environment at VERDER too. The report takes into account gas and electricity energy consumption, as well as the impact of company vehicles and water usage. The total emissions are then split by those under the direct control of VERDER (Scope 1), those within our indirect control (Scope 2) and everything else (Scope 3). The report found that the majority of our emissions are outside of our control, such as employee commuting and outsourced activities, but we are already working with partners on solutions for these aspects as well as improving the activities within our control. The undertaking of this report has given us so much useful information on where and how we need to improve our carbon footprint, we are taking it to the next level by commissioning a product footprinting exercise to ensure our products are performing in the best possible way to help reduce our customer’s impact on the environment.

“VERDER believes if we’re not part of the solution then we’re part of the problem, so we will continue to invest in our products and customers to ensure we’re offering the very best solutions.”
