Carbon Neutral Business

From "Share your Planet Pledge"

Go to the project

Coffee Cup Solutions are a local Wokingham based IT firm. We pledged and achieved to become Carbon Neutral as a business last year. Our pledge this year is to be Carbon Negative!

We are making our stand for sustainability. We pledge to contribute to make a difference to our planet.

Jack Hussey, our Coffee Cup Green Ambassador (and IT Helpdesk Technician) has collated our actions so far, with investment in our sustainability initiative from the Coffee Cup Directors.

  • We use LED lighting in the offices.
  • We offer an electric car scheme to all employees.
  • We are paperless.
  • All recyclable waste gets recycled, which has reduced our waste by half since 2021.
  • We have our milk delivered in re-usable glass bottles rather than plastic cartons, in one year, that’s 500 plastic containers that haven’t gone to landfill.
  • All hardware waste is securely recycled by a company that adheres to the Environmental Management Systems International Standard.
  • We embrace our employees working from home.
  • We work with Ecologi and plant a small forest of trees when we take on a new client, and to offset our Carbon emissions.

Coffee Cup Solutions recently purchased the Head Office building and have since been able to install Solar Panels, thanks to Rainbow Energy. We can now have a greater impact on reducing our Carbon footprint.

We have successfully achieved Carbon Neutral status, and are working to reduce this even more so we are carbon neutral!
