Added by Love Business East Midlands | 25 October 2019
With the largest brick production capacity in the UK, delivery sustainable performance is a priority for Ibstock brick, and it is at the forefront of responsible manufacturing. With a concise strategy it has a sustained and focused approach, investing in energy efficient plant, clean technologies and performance improvements.
At the heart of its sustainability strategy is its People First approach which identifies people as major energy users, as opposed to machinery and processes, and has delivered positive results across the business.
Michael McGowan, Group Sustainability Manager at Ibstock plc, commented:
“We are delighted that Ibstock Brick has been shortlisted for The Manufacturer MX Awards in the Sustainable Manufacturer category. We are committed to more sustainable methods of manufacturing with a focus on investments that will drive our business forward. But above all, the participation of our employees is fundamental to success in this area. By engaging and involving people across all functions we are able to draw on both vast experience and fresh ideas which help us reduce our carbon footprint and impact on the environment.”
The winners will be announced at The Manufacturer MX Awards ceremony and gala dinner on 14 November at the Exhibition Centre Liverpool.
