Greener Initiatives and Sustainability at Farncombe Conference Centre
Sustainability is at the heart of our ethos.
Farncombe is always looking for ways to reduce its impact on the environment. Examples of measurable green initiatives include:
Reduction of water toxicity across the estate. Among the international
family businesses is Ecover, the world leader in environmentally-friendly
cleaning product, a brand which takes 400 times less water to neutralise than
its nearest competitor. To ensure a reduction in water toxicity, all our
cleaning products and toiletries are sourced from Ecover.
-Electric car charging point. More recently we have strengthened our
green credentials by installing an electric car charging point, which is one of
only a handful in the Cotswolds. This is available to the public - not just
exclusive to our clients. Here at Farncombe we are actively supporting greener
transport and encouraging as many people as we can to decrease their carbon
footprint.
- Water filtration system: this inexpensive system enables us to bottle
and carbonate our own tap water, while still meeting conference delegates’
expectations for bottled water. By using
and recycling our own Farncombe-branded bottles, we have saved the cost and
delivery of nearly 12,000 bottles a year.
