Supplier Name – Scientific Sanitation Solutions Ltd
Publication Date – 22nd January 2024

Commitement to achieving net zero

Scientific Sanitation Solutions Ltd is committed to achieving net zero emmissions by 2035 at the latest.

Baseline emissions footprint.

Baseline emissions are a record of the greenhouse gases that have been produced in the past and were produced prior to the introduction of any strategies to reduce emissions. Baseline emissions are the reference point against which emissions reduction can be measured.

Baseline year March 2023 – December 2023

Our baseline emissions invententory includes all our measurable Scope 1,2 and 3 emissions. We include all 7 Kyoto Protocol Greenhouse Gas groups in our emissions footprint calculations. Founded in March 2023 within the UK, our baseline year covers a 9 month period.

* To remove double counting from our Scope 3 emissions, Capital Goods has been included within Purchased Goods
and Services.

* Employee commuting based on survey data and modelling of known office attendance.

* Category 9 (downstream transportation and distribution) is not typically relevant to SSS as only transportation that occurs is through paid-for courier services and carbon emissions associated with this are included in category 4.

Emissions Reduction Targets

Our organisation have key validated science-based targets from 2023. We have committed to reaching Carbon Net Zero ahead of 2035 and have also set a target to become carbon negative by 2050. Progress against this target will be available in subdequent yearly reports

Completed cabon reduction initiatives

Planned Carbon Reduction Initiatives

  • Implementation of a work from
    home policy for applicable staff
  • Implementation of Hybrid and
    Electric Vehicles for key personnel
    who need to travel
  • Procurement of renewal energy
    from renewable energy sources in
    all appropriate settings
  • The roll out of a UK factory with
    energy efficiencies in the Liverpool
    area within the next 12-24 months,
    developing products that will also
    achieve carbon negative status
    within the next 7 years
  • 50% printer use reduction target
    across our office portfolio, avoiding
    all unnesseccary printing
  • Working towards improving data on
    emmmissions surrounding carbon
    reduction for quantifiable actions.
  • Implementation of energy efficent
    laptops for staff
  • Reduce gas consumption by making
    sustainable choices for new
    buildings wherever possible.
  • Use of LED lighting within our UK
    distribution centre
  • Work with landowners at non-
    owned sites to measure electricity consumption and disclose fuel
    mixes, and to switch to 100%
    renewables.
  • We have built awareness within our
    workforce of the needs and
    decision to migrate to Net Zero and
    hold firm wide engement sessions
    on a bi-annual basis also providing
    education sessions surrounding
    carbon literacy
  • Reduce business travel by air, rail,
    and road through effective
    measurement and a sustainable

  • We are implementing an
    engagement strategy to encourage
    our people to learn more and
    reduce their environmental impact.
    This includes internal
    communications forums and events
    focused on environmental
    awareness days
  • Work with suppliers to understand
    their own emissions. Educate and
    encourage them to set their own
    carbon reductions targets in line
    with the science
  • Reduce business travel where
    possible, opting for video
    conference communication as a
    preferred option where possible for
    meetings
  • Integrate climate consideration into
    firm decision making
