Sustainability at Dudley Industries

As a leading manufacturer with over 80 years of experience, our mantra is to continually innovate and improve. At Dudley Industries, we are committed to sustainable manufacturing and improving the products we make and the way we make them. We have a responsibility to the environment, and we strive to consistently find new opportunities to reduce the carbon footprint of our operations, whilst continuing to exceed the expectations of our customers.

Solar Power Investment

Following substantial investment, we embarked on an exciting new initiative to harness the power of solar energy, marking a significant stride towards sustainability within our operations. Our factory roof comprises of 1,155 solar panels, which is projected to supply approximately 40% of our annual energy needs. Using the power of the sun to provide electricity to our factory is a large step forward in reducing our carbon footprint.

Renewable Backed Energy

The balance of energy required above what we generate on site is backed by 100% renewable energy sources. By integrating renewable energy, as well as our other sustainability initiatives, we are demonstrating that sustainability and profitability can go hand in hand.

 

 

Zero Waste to Landfill

We understand that sustainability goes far beyond the energy we use – it’s about waste too. We’ve achieved a milestone of zero waste to landfill by converting 50 tonnes of waste into energy and recycling around 260 tonnes of waste material into new products. Our zero-waste policy ensures that none of the waste generated at our factory ever ends up in landfill.

 

LED Lighting

LED lights conserve up to 80% more energy than traditional lighting, with 95% of their energy being converted into light, and only 5% wasted as heat. Whereas fluorescent alternatives convert 95% of energy to heat and a minimal 5% into light. In addition, greenhouse gas emissions associated with LED lights are considerably lower than conventional incandescent or compact fluorescent bulbs. With this in mind, we operate 100% LED lighting across our site, yielding substantial power savings.

Electric Fleet

Emitting less greenhouse gases and air pollutants over their lifespan than petrol or diesel cars, whenever possible, our team are selecting electric vehicles. We are also working towards electric charging points for our team and visitors. 

Dedicated Team of SHE Specialists

To accelerate the rate of change and to continue improving our sustainability, we have a team of onsite SHE (Safety Health Environment) specialists who are dedicated to helping us take actions that reduce our impact on the environment.

Sustainable Manufacturing Practices

Our manufacturing processes are aimed at optimal material usage, maximising yield from raw materials and natural resources to reduce waste, aligning with our goal of promoting eco-friendly practices throughout the entire production cycle.

Our range comprises mainly of dispensers manufactured from stainless steel which typically contains around 60% recycled content. This includes both post-consumer and post-industrial scrap, making it a highly sustainable material option. This high level of recycled content significantly reduces the environmental impact of producing new stainless-steel items.

Many of our other components, such as internal mechanisms can also be fully recycled at the end of their lifetime.

Product Longevity

World-class designers and stainless-steel fabricators, we believe in creating high-quality products that stand the test of time. Our products are warranted up to 10 years and reliable operation can be expected well beyond this - another way in which we reduce waste. 

Exercising Corporate Social Responsibility

We embrace corporate social responsibility (CSR) in a manner that empowers our team to act in a socially responsible way to positively impact the world around them. Our work in the local community sees us working closely with schools, preparing students for the workplace and promoting engineering and manufacturing as career options.

The Future of Sustainability at Dudley Industries

It’s not just us, we know sustainability is just as important to our new and existing customers too. There are always more sustainability improvements which can be made, and we are excited to continue innovating and improving our practices, helping to promote a bright and healthy future for us and our planet.
