A Greener Tomorrow

23 February 2024

At Alben Landscapes, we believe in the power of sustainable practices to shape a healthier, more environmentally conscious future. Our commitment to reducing our carbon footprint is ingrained in every aspect of our operations.

Here’s a glimpse into the steps we’ve taken to embrace a greener path:

Transition to Electric Machinery

We’ve initiated a shift towards electric machines, progressively replacing all petrol equipment with eco-friendly alternatives. This not only reduces emissions but also aligns with our dedication to cleaner, more sustainable technology.

Glyphosate Reduction

Acknowledging the environmental impact of traditional herbicides, we are actively reducing the use of Glyphosate. Embracing new, environmentally friendly chemicals and incorporating power sweepers more frequently are steps towards minimising our ecological footprint.

Digital Dashboard System

Our digital dashboard system for job planning and reporting has proven instrumental in reducing paper usage by up to 85%. By leveraging technology, we not only enhance efficiency but also contribute to a paperless, more sustainable work environment.

Wildlife Conservation

Collaboration with our customers is key to establishing, maintaining, and protecting wildlife areas. We work closely with clients to incorporate green spaces that contribute to biodiversity and ecological balance.

Local Employment

Wherever possible, we prioritise employing staff and apprentices from the geographical areas in which we operate. This not only supports local communities but also minimises the carbon footprint associated with commuting.

Bio-Chomper Investment

In our commitment to responsible waste management, we’ve invested in a Bio-Chomper. This innovative tool recycles brash into compost, which we then utilise on sites across the north-west region. This not only reduces waste but also enhances the fertility of the soil.

Continuous Innovation The Alben team is dedicated to seeking new and innovative ways to reduce, reuse, and recycle. Our ongoing commitment involves staying at the forefront of sustainability practices, and we will keep you informed about new initiatives and projects that align with our green objectives.

We understand the pivotal role we play in preserving and enhancing the environment. By adopting these eco-friendly practices, we aim to lead the way in sustainable landscaping while inspiring positive change within our industry and beyond.

Together, let’s cultivate a greener tomorrow.
