GREEN RIBBON AWARD HOSKING ASSOCIATES
Environment and health and safety experts, Hosking Associates recognised that achieving the ISO 14001 standard is a daunting prospect for organisations and many get bogged down in the process or simply don’t know where to begin. Committed to helping companies develop environmental and sustainability best practices, the team at Hosking Associates launched the Green Ribbon Award as an incentive for businesses to take the first step toward certification and establish a solid, responsible environmental strategy.
To earn an award, Hosking Associates works closely with organisations, guiding them through a 50-point, one-day audit to assess their business’s environmental strategy. Each company is then given an audit report, action plan and overall score which serves as a benchmark for improvement. Companies that score 85% or above are awarded the Green Ribbon Award. Those that do not achieve it are provided with recommendations for improvement and given the opportunity to be reassessed at a future date.
The audit covers areas including: fuel tanks, energy systems, waste notes, etc., and is an excellent stepping stone in working toward an ISO 14001 certification.

HI FLO II CAMFIL
The new Hi-Flo II is an enhanced version of Camfil’s award-winning Hi-Flo low energy air filter. Featuring aerodynamic pockets for optimised performance, the new low energy air filters have been rated A+ by Eurovent. It saves up to £30 per year for every installed filter. FMs, Energy Managers and building owners will be able to meet the much tougher requirements for energy savings specified in Eurovent’s 2015 energy efficiency classification system for air filters.
Bill Wilkinson, Managing Director, Camfil UK said: “The new Energy Saver Hi-Flo filter from Camfil is a major ‘quick win’ for switched on Energy Managers and FMs. The pay backs within revenue budgets are typically less than three months and air filters are designed to be changed, unlike other components within the ventilation system, so consequently do not put any pressure on capital budgets when upgrading to low energy air filters”.
Eurovent‘s new, objective energy efficiency classification has now been implemented. Today all air filters can be graded from A+ to E. The grade A+ stands for the lowest energy consumption and E for the highest.
The top model, M7 in filter class F7, has received the highest rating from Eurovent (A+) for its outstandingly low energy consumption. In addition to saving more energy, the filtration efficiency of the new Hi-Flo II M7 is significantly higher than the performance demands for equivalent filters in EN779:2012, the European standard for general ventilation filters.
