Leaders has launched its upgraded sustainable office in Guildford, Surrey, with an event for local clients, media, local businesses and Leaders staff.
The Leaders Romans Group (LRG) brand followed the green design principles previously created by retail design consultants Jackson Associates to completely refurbish and design the Guildford office to their green principles.
The event saw the official unveiling of the branch's new sustainable fit-out, fully powered by renewable green energy including low-flow taps and low-VOC paints.
All fixtures and fittings were chosen to be as environmentally friendly as possible, with many retained from the existing branch to further reduce carbon footprint and all wood was sourced from locally produced FSC-certified wood.
The carpet in the new branch is made from 65% post-industrial recycled content and the supplier will repurpose and recycle the finished item when it reaches the end of life.
David Wilson, group chief operating officer of LRG, said: "Starting 2024 with a further sustainable addition to our branch network at Guildford is incredibly exciting.
“LRG is whole-heartedly committed to its environmental initiatives, and we were thrilled to announce in 2022 that the group had achieved carbon neutrality and again in 2023 – well ahead of our target of 2030. It was brilliant to welcome so many people to the event and share with them information on how they can make their homes more environmentally friendly".
Earlier this year LRG proudly announced its sustained achievement of carbon neutrality for a second consecutive year.
Having partnered with Green the UK in 2022, LRG also plants a tree for every new property sold or let with them.
The brand recently celebrated the planting of 26,000 trees. Those trees will sequester at least 56 tonnes of carbon a year which is equivalent to almost 162,000 people breathing in a day.
