Optimus Access – Sustainable Welfare Solutions for On-Site Teams

The Requirement

Optimus Access needed welfare facilities that provided essential amenities while minimising environmental impact. Traditional diesel-powered units conflicted with their sustainability commitments, prompting the search for a cleaner, more efficient alternative.

The Solution

In partnership with ecowelfare, Optimus Access implemented a fully solar-powered 12ft welfare unit, featuring a canteen, a toilet and a dry room. This innovative unit offered a practical, self-sufficient and environmentally friendly workspace, significantly reducing fuel consumption and emissions.

The Conclusion

  • Zero fuel costs – fully solar-powered, eliminating reliance on diesel
  • Over 94 litres of fuel saved – reducing operational expenses and environmental impact
  • More than 299kg of COâ‚‚ emissions avoided – supporting Optimus Access’ sustainability initiatives
  • Improved workforce welfare – providing comfortable and well-equipped spaces for on-site teams

 

By integrating solar-powered welfare units, Optimus Access successfully enhanced site conditions while advancing its environmental commitments. These units deliver essential amenities without reliance on fossil fuels, promoting a cleaner and more sustainable working environment.
