We are proud to be this years national winners of the British Chamber of Commerce Planet Saver Award. Protecting the environment and contributing to a sustainable future has been at the forefront of Marlec’s values for over 40 years and receiving this award for our continued commitment is a fantastic feeling.
Sarah Howard, Chair of the British Chambers of Commerce (BCC) said:
“Marlec Engineering has been making our local economies and communities greener places to live and work for over four decades. Specialising in the manufacturing and development of wind and solar solutions, they help power infrastructure from street lighting and CCTV, to sailing ships and environmental monitoring equipment.
“This business practices what they preach, paving the way for other firms to follow. All company vehicles are powered using 100% renewable energy, their office and factory lights are sourced from highly efficient LED lighting, and even the paper in the office is shredded and recycled. This is a business truly committed to sustainability, having earned their gold-star reputation over 44 years of promoting the planet.”
