Our Journey
Working with ECA Business Energy, an independent energy management advice company, we spent the last 12 months evaluating IPM's business processes and operations.
This was a lengthy task with us having several regional depots nationwide, a fleet of vehicles and a workforce of over 100 employees, so it was a great achievement to accomplish this four years ahead of our original target date of 2025.
Our Goal
This has now provided us the scope to focus on becoming a net-zero business by 2030, reducing our total emissions year on year to reach this goal.
Our commitment to making the world a better place for future generations is not something that will happen overnight, nor without considerable investment – it is something that each of us as individuals is responsible for working towards, and becoming carbon neutral is just one chapter of this story.
While we have always been mindful of the impacts our actions have on the environment, we knew there was plenty more that we could be doing as an organisation.
The UK government’s 2019 target of reaching net-zero emissions by 2050 was one of the catalysts which spurred us on. We undertook a full carbon assessment to determine what actions would be required if we were to become net-zero ourselves.
As part of this initive we are proudly working with global partners on a range of offsetting projects. Details of these can be found below.
