That’s why at Seal-Lite we recently teamed up with Positive Planet, to help us in our mission to reduce our carbon footprint and achieve our goal of becoming net zero.
Achieving net zero means you don’t release more greenhouse gases into the Earth’s atmosphere through activities like burning fossil fuels than the amount you take out, helping to combat climate change.
Positive Planet are a leading consultancy that helps businesses reduce their environmental impact. 
Launched with the view that climate change presents a need for businesses like ourselves to future-proof operations, they’re working alongside our team at Seal-Lite to ensure we continue manufacturing and installing quality products that can be enjoyed for generations to come.
Positive Planet will regularly be conducting environmental audits of our operations at Seal-Lite. As a result, they will identify areas for improvement in our processes, ensuring we remain on track for our goals.
At Seal-Lite, we are actively looking to learn and implement procedures to play our part in combating climate change and to help make our industry a more sustainable place. Positive Planet helps to connect us with other sustainability-conscious businesses and organisations, encouraging collaboration and strengthening our position as a leader in the sustainable manufacturing industry.
Positive Planet provides ongoing sustainability consulting services to our team at Seal-Lite. This guidance helps us to implement best practices and explore innovative solutions to further reduce our environmental impact. They set our targets, and we receive our own plan to reduce our carbon emissions.
At Seal-Lite we’ve already implemented several practices to reduce our environmental footprint, and here are a few of them.
We’re proud to recycle everything we use on-site, meaning we prevent waste from finding its way to landfills, and ultimately into our oceans, protecting marine life.
This commitment is followed in every stage of our process, from initially fabricating our uPVC and aluminium products in our manufacturing facilities, to eventually installing them at the homes of our customers.
On top of this, we send skips of our mixed waste to a dedicated waste partner. They then break it down, and successfully recycle over 99% of it, making sure everything we use in our process is put to good use.
Given that we manufacture our products in-house, we have full control over their specifications and features.
They’re all designed with energy efficiency in mind, by utilising sustainable windows that have Low-E glass and exceptional thermal efficiency that works to reduce your energy consumption and lower energy bills.
Whether it’s our French doors, composite doors, bi-fold doors, or windows such as casement and sliding sash, you can rest assured that a Seal-Lite product will work naturally to keep your home warm in the winter and cool in the summer.
We utilise recycled content that guarantees surface appearance, finish quality, and depth of gloss, which ensures that the surface has no pits or extrusion lines.
Sound too good to be true? It’s possible thanks to Ecotech, a ground-breaking application of uPVC recycling technology adapted by Aluplast.
Through the process, recycled and virgin materials are extruded simultaneously through a single dye to create a profile, locking the recycling material away from the frame.
This sustainable construction creates a new generation of environmentally friendly uPVC windows and doors, with no loss of quality.
At Seal-Lite, being environmentally conscious is nothing new. Over seven years ago, we took the step of installing our very own PV rooftop solar panel system.
Installed by a local company called Solarsense, it successfully supplies over 50% of our energy requirements, reducing our use of fossil fuels and helping to combat climate change.
At the same time, in around 2016, we switched off all lighting in our factory and offices in favour of low powered LED systems – this too reduced our overall energy usage, as we decided as a company that we wanted to play our part in helping our planet.
Positive Planet works to bridge the gap between good environmental intentions to help with our climate crisis and concrete action.
Many small and medium-sized businesses want to be more sustainable but lack the expertise to implement effective strategies, so Positive Planet helps us and others with this.
Businesses are significant contributors to greenhouse gas emissions and resource depletion, so by adopting environmentally-friendly practices they can reduce their carbon footprint.
At Seal-Lite, we proudly stand as leading fabricators and installers who offer home improvements in Clevedon, Bristol, and the surrounding South West area.
Our products include windows, doors, conservatories, and much more, and we use building materials such as modern uPVC, aluminium, and composite.
We place great importance on actively supporting our local community, so are proud to sponsor a range of local grassroots sports clubs such as Long Ashton Golf Club, Nailsea Cricket Club, and Nailsea & Backwell Rugby Football Club.
