Sustainability is not just a trend but a fundamental aspect of modern interior design, essential for creating stylish spaces that meet strict environmental standards. As the design and manufacturing industries increasingly adopt sustainable practices, there is a growing demand for materials that blend visual appeal with ethical sourcing.

Our Commitment to Sustainability

As the UK’s market leader in complete ceiling systems, we have made significant strides towards reducing our environmental impact and supporting sustainable construction practices.

Serene hA ceiling tiles, previously known as Sierra OP, exemplify our dedication to sustainability and high performance. These tiles contain 57% recycled content, demonstrating our commitment to using environmentally friendly materials. The integration of recycled paper into our ceiling tiles supports a circular economy by minimising waste.

Supporting Sustainable Education

Educational institutions are increasingly prioritising sustainable design to create optimal learning environments and minimise distractions. Serene hA ceiling tiles not only meet these objectives but surpass them with Class A sound absorption and aesthetic requirements suitable for schools and universities. They also closely align with these organisations’ environmental goals.

We are committed to achieving significant reductions in greenhouse gas emissions, targeting a 30% reduction by 2025. To do this, we will replace gas burners and upgrade the insulation on the main dryer, as well as install submeters throughout our factories to identify and optimise the highest energy processes. This commitment ensures that products like Serene hA are manufactured with minimal environmental impact, making them ideal for sustainable educational facilities.

Implementing Serene hA in educational settings is straightforward due to its easy installation and low maintenance requirements. This minimises disruptions during renovations or new construction, making it a practical choice for busy educational facilities. Additionally, the tiles’ durability and high quality ensure long-term performance, reducing the need for frequent replacements and supporting sustainable building maintenance practices over time.

Conclusion
