Introduction
Arbor Contracts is a trusted specialist in commercial landscaping, fencing and civil engineering services, delivering high-quality solutions across the UK. With a strong commitment to sustainability and operational efficiency, the company is focused on reducing its environmental footprint while ensuring the comfort and wellbeing of its workforce.
The Requirement
Working across varied and often remote locations, Arbor Contracts needed an on-site welfare solution that was both practical and environmentally responsible. Traditional diesel-powered welfare units conflicted with their sustainability principles, contributing to unnecessary emissions and high fuel costs. A greener, more efficient alternative was essential.
The Solution
To meet both environmental and operational goals, Arbor Contracts partnered with ecowelfare to deploy fully solar-powered welfare units on their project sites. The 12ft unit which features a toilet, drying room and canteen, provided workers with a reliable, comfortable space while completely removing reliance on fossil fuels. These units not only improved day-to-day site operations but also reinforced Arbor Contracts’ commitment to sustainable practices.
The Conclusion
- Zero fuel costs – Fully solar-powered units eliminated diesel dependency.
- Over 213 litres of fuel saved – Cutting operational costs and reducing environmental impact.
- Over one tonne of CO₂ emissions avoided – Advancing Arbor Contracts’ carbon reduction goals.
- Enhanced workforce wellbeing – On-site facilities provided comfort and support in all site conditions.
