INNOVATING TOWARDS A SUSTAINABLE FUTURE

the key to a sustainable future… home improvement practices.

Over the past decade, the UK has witnessed a significant shift in public attitudes towards environmental responsibility, with consumers increasingly looking for sustainable alternatives across everything from food and fashion to transport and energy sources.

In 2019, the UK became the first major economy in the world to pass laws to end its contribution to global warming by 2050, a target requiring the country to bring all greenhouse gas emissions to net zero in less than 30 years.

But a much more pressing deadline is the Future Homes Standard, a policy that requires all new homes in England to be futureproofed with high levels of energy efficiency by 2025 –less than two years away.

The strict set of standards will ensure that all new homes built in England from 2025 will produce 75 to 80% less carbon emissions than homes delivered under current regulations.

It’s vital, then, that manufacturers across the country adopt an innovative approach to producing home improvement products, and at Warwick North West, it’s just what we’ve done.

A mounting awareness of climate issues has also naturally extended into the realm of home improvement, with the UK government also playing a crucial role in accelerating the adoption of sustainable

Amongst our wide range of products, we manufacture Modus, a uPVC casement window that’s been strategically designed with seven chambers within the PVC profile, allowing for a significantly low u-value – or the measure of the rate of heat transfer –that meets the requirements for the Future Homes Standard today, rather than waiting until 2025. www.warwicknorthwest.co.uk

The government has set an ambitious target for manufactures with the imminent Future Homes Standard – at Warwick North West, we’ve taken this challenge seriously, embraced innovation and with Modus, have dedicated ourselves to meeting the standard today, not tomorrow.

As we near 2025, the urgency of embracing sustainable solutions in the construction industry cannot be overstated, and I truly believe that through innovation, we can build a more sustainable future for our homes and our planet.

As a company, we are committed to creating a positive and supportive work culture. We always encourage our staff to share their ideas and suggestions with us.

Recently, we received a lot of feedback from our employees about the need for a “Breakfast Club” initiative. This idea involves providing our staff with a range of breakfast options, including different types of cereal, fresh bread, teas, and coffees - all free of charge.

We know that the past few years have been challenging, with the rising cost of living affecting everyone. It’s crucial that we acknowledge this and support each other in any way we can. Offering free breakfast to our employees is a small but meaningful way to show our support. We believe that this initiative will not only benefit our employees but also help to strengthen our workplace culture and foster a sense of community within our company.

Blok ‘N’ Mesh recognises the immense value that our employees bring to the table, and we are proud of the continuous excellence in their work.

Every two years, we collaborate with Clarion company to support the DSEI event in coordination with the Metropolitan Police Anti-Terror Division. This event showcases the latest weaponry developed and distributed worldwide by both military and private contractors.

As part of our responsibility, we install Polmil fencing around the entire perimeter of the Excel Exhibition Centre where the event takes place. Due to the nature of the event, it attracts a lot of attention from protest groups who are against the manufacture and distribution of arms. Therefore, our fencing is essential to ensure the safety of the attendees, the public, and the protestors.

Our team is committed and hardworking. The sales department secures contracts by engaging in numerous visits, calls, and emails. At the same time, our factory produces the equipment, and our depots arrange deliveries to London.

We want to give a special shoutout to our fencing installers, who displayed unwavering dedication and worked tirelessly for eight consecutive days to ensure the fencing was up and ready for the event.

This year, the team exceeded expectations by completing the main fence installation two days ahead of schedule. Their hard work and dedication is evident in the outstanding results.
