    Binder Ltd Earns Mission Zero Standard

    At Binder, we are committed to upholding the highest standards in road fleet safety and environmental responsibility. We are pleased to announce that we have been awarded the Mission Zero Quality Standard, a significant step forward in our ongoing efforts to ensure zero collisions, zero emissions, and zero prohibitions.

    What is Mission Zero?

    Mission Zero is a framework specifically designed for the road fleet sector, guiding organisations toward achieving safer and more sustainable fleet operations. This accreditation is built on a comprehensive legal compliance audit, incorporating industry best practices to ensure that operators meet stringent safety, environmental, and legal requirements.

    Why It Matters for Binder Ltd

    For Binder Ltd, achieving Mission Zero means more than just meeting regulatory requirements; it reflects our dedication to safety, sustainability, and continuous improvement. This accreditation demonstrates that we adhere to key industry standards, including TfL’s Work-Related Road Risk (WRRR) and CLOCS. By achieving this recognition, we are reinforcing our commitment to operating responsibly, reducing road risk, and minimising environmental impact.

    Our Approach to Safety and Sustainability

    Binder Ltd has always prioritised safety and environmental responsibility in our fleet operations. With Mission Zero, we continue to strengthen these values by adopting best practices that align with the latest regulatory and industry standards. This accreditation further proves our commitment to providing safe, efficient, and sustainable services to our clients and the local communities we serve in Suffolk, Essex, Norfolk and Cambridgeshire.

    “We’ve always focused on keeping things safe and sustainable at Binder Ltd. Achieving the Mission Zero accreditation is a big step for us, but it’s really just part of our ongoing commitment to reducing road risks, cutting emissions, and taking care of our people and the environment. We’re excited to be part of the movement towards safer, greener roads.”

    Green Initiative Update

    Our Green Initiative began back in April 2022 and since we announced the launch we’ve donated over 395 trees – far exceeding our target of 100.

    Thank you to those that have already supported the campaign. Here’s more information about how you’ve made a difference as well as guidance from the Woodland Trust about the benefits of native tree planting.

    Our promise was to gift a native tree for every new residential installation and as of the end of August 2024 we have gifted 395 native crab apple trees to new customers across the Eastern Region.

    This is just one of the steps we are taking as part of our aim to become more sustainable as a business as we look at how we can positively impact climate change within our community.

    Have you received one of these gifted trees? Email us with your photos at [email protected] or share them on social media using the hashtag #GreenInitative – don’t forget to tag us!

    If you’re considering installing a new treatment plant at your home, contact our team and book a consultation.

    Every tree counts – Green Initiative update

    Back in April, we announced the launch of our brand new Green Initiative. A promise to gift a native tree for every new residential installation.

    We are delighted to provide an update on our sustainability initiative as we head into the final months of 2022. We are well on our way to achieving our target of 100 trees and as it stands (14th November 2022), we have gifted 94 native crab apple trees to new customers across the Eastern Region.

    This is just one small step as part of our long-term objectives to ensure business operations are more sustainable – an integral part of our company ethos. 

    In addition to the Green Initiative, we have also donated a tree to be planted on the Suffolk Showground to support the Suffolk Show’s contribution to the Queens Green Canopy project. Find out more about this project here.

    We would like to take this opportunity to thank our customers for their support. If you’re considering installing a new treatment plant at your home, contact our team and book your consultation today.

    Launch of the Green Initiative

    Ahead of Earth Day 2022 (April 22), we are delighted to announce the launch of our brand new Green Initiative. 

    For every residential installation, we are gifting a native tree to kick-start our sustainability journey toward a more environmentally-conscious company. This is just one small step as part of our long-term objectives to ensure business operations are more sustainable – an integral part of our company ethos. 

    In addition to the Green Initiative we have also donated a tree to be planted on the Suffolk Showground to support the Suffolk Show’s contribution to the Queens Green Canopy project. Find out more about this project here.

    Not only do trees provide a habitat for the  local ecosystem, but they also contribute to the improvement of air quality. Did you know, on average, one tree produces almost 118kg of oxygen and absorbs up to 22kg of carbon each year?

    Scientific evidence shows that trees benefit the environment and increase health and wellbeing by:

    • Helping to purify the air
    • Lowering the air temperature
    • Preventing flooding
    • Sustaining wildlife
    • Improving soil quality
    • Lowering stress 

    As an environmentally responsible liquid waste management company, our operations are approved by the Environmental Agency, and ensuring the highest quality of water discharge back into the local environment is part of our BSI ISO 14001 accreditation for environmental management. We want to go even further than this validation and introduce new initiatives to support the local environment and contribute to the wider efforts to tackle climate change. 

    ‘In response to a number of conversations with customers and local stakeholders, we realise the importance of not only providing a high-quality service but also taking responsibility for wider issues in the environment. Going beyond the requirements of our Environmental Agency accreditations, means we can truly make a difference and build on our strong reputation as a community-centric local business’. Richard Binder, Director.
