A Carbon Smart move for office recycling company

Paper Round, London's largest office recycling company is undertaking a KTP with LSBU to develop an innovative set of environmental services in order to offset carbon emissions in offices by the better use of technology and through organisational and behavioural change.

The Carbon Smart service offers businesses the opportunity to have their systems assessed, gaining energy consumption feedback and recommendations for changes to reduce their carbon footprints.

Working alongside the academics at LSBU is a fantastic opportunity for Paper Round who lack detailed knowledge about evaluating available low carbon technologies, assessing energy usage in buildings and the knowledge of technical implementation changes within offices. LSBU academic Phil Jones said the project would have effective impacts for SMEs across the board. "This service encourages energy effectiveness and carbon reductions and efficiency. It is a project with many benefits for many parties," comments Phil.
