Resolution GB Ltd achieves Carbon Negative Status
01 June 2023
We are pleased to announce that we have completed our calculations and can report a business status of being Carbon Negative.
This is a great achievement for our Hampshire-based business. Our offices are located in Oakley at Park Farm and we run our premises from a converted battery hen house. The business runs solely from Solar Power with off grid water from a well. We also use energy saving lightbulbs and minimise our paper and water waste. All of our staff are employed locally with no large commutes. We also encourage our customers to trade-in their old printers to avoid them going into landfill.
We no longer visit customer sites to provide advice about which printer to purchase as this can be done easily over the phone to reduce business travel as part of our commitment and drive to minimise our carbon footprint.
We were the very first HP DesignJet partner to take up the HP Amplify Award to increase our sustainability. We are now moving a further step forward this year and committing to planting 1 tree for every HP DesignJet Printer sold.
