SUSTAINABILITY
Keller – positive about being carbon negative!
Keller has been a carbon neutral manufacturer for over five years; it is enshrined within the corporate social responsibility ethos. In 2021, the next step, to be a carbon negative manufacturer, was taken. This initiative will extract 150 tonnes of carbon from the air over a five-year period; 150 tonnes is the equivalent carbon output of a normal kitchen manufacturer making 70,000 kitchens Keller’s goal is to adopt
technologies and processes which will maintain the company’s status as a world leading force in the sustainable manufacturing of beautiful kitchens. Becoming carbon negative is an all-encompassing circular process;
from the materials from renewable sources, to recycling old kitchens, and everything in between. Examples include generating electricity from over 8,000 solar panels on the factory roof; using technology such as no glue laser edging and water-based lacquering; recyclable packaging; bio-mass heat/energy generation; greening of the entire fleet of vehicles; planting forests in Bolivia and more.

A Fresh Breeze: hansgrohe Rebris with EcoSmart+
The new Rebris line from hansgrohe combines sophisticated product design with innovative sustainable technology. Rebris is available in two different design variations, Rebris S with soft curves and Rebris E with clean lines, as well as being available in both chrome and matt black finishes. Rebris comes with pioneering
EcoSmart+ and CoolStart technology, making the line perfect for saving water and reducing heating costs. EcoSmart+ technology aims to reduce water consumption to just 4 litres per minute at 3 bar standard
pressure. This allows Rebris to reduce water flow by 20% compared to existing EcoSmart products. Further sustainability features are offered via CoolStart technology, ensuring the tap automatically delivers cold water when the handle is in the middle position, reducing unnecessary energy consumption to heat the water. Rebris is a stylish yet sustainable choice for a range of design aesthetics, available in the UK from October 2022.

Stylish and sustainable solutions from InSinkErator® I
nSinkErator® is committed to providing lifestyle-enhancing solutions,
which promote the efficient use of water, are safe to use, and reduce the impact that food and plastic waste has on landfill sites and the environment. As an active campaigner for the prevention of
food waste and encouraging the disposal of food waste sustainably, InSinkErator® advises composting wherever possible. Where this isn’t possible, an InSinkErator® food waste disposer is the ideal alternative for diverting food waste from landfill. InSinkErator® invented the food waste
disposer over 90 years ago and today has a range of models, designed to suit different family sizes and home cooking needs. In May 2021, the government announced that
by 2023, every UK household will receive separate weekly food waste collections1. However, having a separate food waste collection can mean smelly food waste accumulates in the kitchen. When designing your customer’s kitchen, why not specify an InSinkErator® food waste disposer? It allows food waste to be disposed of instantly, eliminating the need to use an unhygienic food
waste caddy, especially where home composting is not possible. The InSinkErator® portfolio also boasts an
elegant collection of specialist kitchen taps, in a variety of on-trend finishes, that can minimise water waste, save energy and reduce single-use plastic waste.
