Ensuring that the development of human society becomes more sustainable for the long-term is a vital goal for us all in the 21st century.

Our aim is making cleaning sustainable together and within our daily needs. We understand the importance of cleaning with less resources such as materials, fuel, paper and energy, whilst continuing to deliver a good level of performance. From our Head Office to our supply chain partners and everything in between, our choices have always included the consideration of our environmental footprint and social impact.

With ISO14001 (Environmental Management) accreditation in place, our approach to continuous improvement includes our dedication to all aspects of sustainability.

Promotion to Raise Awareness of Water and Electricity Usage

Britannia have now introduced a variety of cleaning regimes and equipment that are designed to reduce water consumption and energy use. With the use of Ultra-efficient lithium ion battery powered vacuum cleaners the efficiency gains from moving a vacuum cleaner from the floor to a backpack reduces vacuuming time by 30-40%. This reduction in run time, cuts the electricity requirements too, leading to greater energy efficiency across the building.

I-mop – Faster & More Hygienic Scrub Mopping

I-mops use a fraction of the water of traditional mopping equipment, reducing environmental impact by up to 75%. Our suppliers estimate that global I-mop usage to date has saved 156 million litres of water from going to waste.

Introducing Guidelines on Waste Management

We believe it is of benefit to offer our clients guidelines for segregation of general waste, recyclable and non-recyclable waste. We also offer our clients waste collection data information to enable them to monitor their sites performance and to set realistic targets of minimising waste, working closely with leaders in the disposal of waste in the South East.
