At Radii Planet Group, we recognise and are acting upon our legal and moral responsibility to manage our business operations and reduce any detrimental impact on our planet.
We understand that a company such as ours has the opportunity to make a difference; for all employees and stakeholders, at all locations, for every project we work on, and with every product we produce.
Economy and Waste Reduction Principles
To always ensure environmental best practice in line with our Environmental and Sustainability Policies and in compliance of our ISO14001:2015 accreditation. This commitment covers multiple parts of our operations, including:
As part of Radii Planet Group’s ongoing commitment to sustainability, we have published a library of Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) for our aluminium framed partitioning and door systems:
Our EPDs are based on results from life cycle assessment (LCA) studies, formulated using 2019 production data from the RP Products’ manufacturing facility in Burgess Hill, UK and from a key supplier in Aylesbury, UK.
RPG's EPDs present details of the relevant LCA, a description of the product life cycle that it covers, the values for the environmental indicators specified by EN 15804, in accordance with ISO 14025 and a brief explanation of the results.
To enhance and guarantee their value and credibility to users, EPD are subject to rules and standards, which mandate independent external verification.
All of RPG's EPDs are therefore produced with respect to the Product Category Rules defined by an independent EPD Programme Operator.
Visit our downloads page to download EPDs for each of the listed products.
Radii Planet Group is pleased to have contributed towards several construction projects that have achieved or exceeded the required performance criteria in the assessment of sustainable performance.
We can demonstrate compliance against the most commonly used sustainability standards for building projects:
Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) is a green building certification program used worldwide. The USGBC (The U.S. Green Building Council) is a provider of LEED & promotes sustainability in building design, construction, and operation.
An international scheme that provides independent third party certification of the assessment of the sustainability performance of individual buildings, communities and infrastructure projects.
An environmental assessment method, benchmark and standard for non domestic fit outs, which comprises more than a hundred 'good practice' measures covering energy and CO2 emissions, waste, water, materials, pollution, wellbeing and transport.
At Radii Planet Group we believe that 100 per cent reusable and relocatable partitioning solutions, able to be redeployed multiple times throughout the lifecycle of the product, will be a key area of consideration moving forward.
Creating flexible, agile internal workspaces will be a true benefit to organisations who aim to keep pace with the ever-changing needs of their community as working habits evolve.
With the industry-wide push towards a more sustainable future, the use of reconfigurable office partitions greatly reduces material wastage and — through the gathering of product EPD data — can be a notable contributing factor towards the achievement of recognized environmental standards and certifications.
Central to our sustainability work is the ongoing development and implementation of our Net Zero Carbon Strategy, a key pillar of our environmental and sustainability commitment as we contribute towards the drive to reach a position of 'net zero carbon'.
RPG have implemented a Net Zero Carbon Strategy as part of our continued commitment to reducing our environmental impact and to aid the UK government in their target of the country being NZC by 2050.
Around 40 per cent of the UK’s carbon footprint is attributed to the ‘built environment’ – meaning that our progress in implementing our strategy and supporting our industry colleagues will be of direct importance if the nation is to meet its targets.
At Radii Planet Group we understand that, alongside the environment, social considerations are also key to building a sustainable future for our Company.
