Tsurumi Pumps UK presses ahead with carbon reduction initiatives
Tsurumi Pumps UK has reported such success with its tree planting project, that the company is not only continuing to plant a tree for every Tsurumi brand pump sold in 2025, but the firm has also introduced a brand new initiative to reduce carbon and provide shelter and habitat for marine life.
During 2024, Tsurumi Pumps planted a tree for every single Tsurumi Pump purchased by customers. A total of 12,052 trees were planted both in the UK and worldwide throughout the year, smashing the original target of planting in excess of 10,000 trees.
The tree planting project is carried out in conjunction with Carma, a B Corp certified company. Trees are one of the biggest weapons in combating climate change, absorbing and storing harmful carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere and releasing clean, breathable oxygen back into the air. Trees also help prevent flooding, reduce local temperatures and provide habitats for life.
The tree planting project has proved such a success that not only is Tsurumi Pumps UK continuing to plant a tree for every pump sold in 2025, the company has also pledged to plant a kelp plant for every Tsurumi brand pump complete with hose sold in 2025.
Kelp is a type of seaweed that locks away millions of tonnes of carbon every year, making it a crucial carbon-capture tool
56
in the race to solve climate change. Found along one third of the world’s coastlines, it produces oxygen and food, and provides shelter and habitat for marine life, whilst increasing biodiversity.
Collectively, Tsurumi Pumps is aiming to plant in excess of 12,000 trees and kelp plants in 2025. Throughout the year, Tsurumi Pumps UK will measure, record and publicise how many trees and kelp plants have been planted and the carbon reductions made. There is a live status report on the Tsurumi Pumps website at
www.tsurumi.co.uk showing progress towards the target throughout the year.
Pete McMutrie, Sales Director at Tsurumi Pumps UK said: “We want to thank all our customers for supporting our carbon reduction initiatives with their Tsurumi Pump purchases and we hope they will
continue to support our campaigns throughout 2025. We welcome customers joining us in our journey to help fight climate change, and we can even register trees or kelp plants in their name if they wish to do so following any purchase of a Tsurumi Pump or Tsurumi Pump with hose.
“Sustainability is one of our key objectives and we’ll soon be launching our brand-new sustainability video which highlights the journey the business has been on since 2012 when we started to implement strategies to reduce our carbon footprint,” he added.
Tsurumi Pumps was previously known as Obart Pumps. The company has been a Tsurumi distributor since 1975 and the firm’s pumps are widely used across construction, civil engineering, wastewater treatment, tunnelling and domestic applications.
