Introduction
Bell Group is one of the UK’s leading property services contractors, specialising in painting, decorating and maintenance nationwide.

The Requirement
Operating across multiple sites, Bell Group required an on-site welfare solution that balanced practicality with environmental responsibility.

The unit included a canteen and two toilets, offering comfortable, hygienic facilities without reliance on fossil fuels. This self-sufficient solution helped maintain high welfare standards and workforce productivity across their various sites.

- Over 401 litres of fuel saved – Lowering operational expenses and reducing emissions.
- Over 1.26 tonnes of CO₂ emissions avoided – Advancing Bell Group’s sustainability targets.
