CREATEABILITY’s green credentials


CREATEABILITY recycles waste in a number of ways. By using waste collection companies that have their own waste transfer stations to ensure waste is included in recycling rather than going straight to landfill.

When appropriate timber is reused to build new partitions and old blocks used again to build new walls. As well as reducing waste this minimises skip hire and subsequent traffic movement. Wherever possible CREATEABILITY refurbish existing doors and joinery, which negates the costs of sourcing and buying new materials as well as removal and disposal of the old and fitting the new.

Although everyone theoretically buys into being green the reality is that some items are initially more expensive to buy even though they are cheaper to run. CREATEABILITY encourages clients to reap the longer-term benefits. For example, similarly to home use, long life light bulbs/modules. These can cost up to 40% more to install but running costs are recouped over 2 years and they last longer.
