Environment, Health and Safety

The very nature of what we do at Colt contributes to a built environment that is more efficient and sustainable in the use of the world’s natural resources. Our technologies harness natural elements and make them work for the building, to ensure the most efficient use of energy.

Many products in the Colt portfolio contribute to a building’s energy efficiency; for example solar shading that reduces cooling requirements or natural ventilation that lowers internal temperatures and improves air quality with no or minimal energy expenditure.

Not only do we help our customers with their designs’ environmental performance; we also look at the way we run our operations, taking every opportunity to reduce the environmental impact of our activities, both at our offices and at our manufacturing locations. We plan our logistics to optimise efficiency, seek to minimise packaging, reduce waste, recycle and use materials from sustainable or recycled sources.

In an industry such as the one Colt operates in, Health and Safety is of paramount importance.  Colt has an outstanding record in Health and Safety at work but is not complacent about its position.

For this reason, Colt has created a comprehensive e-learning course on Health and Safety in the workplace, which is mandatory for all personnel.  It is designed to raise awareness of issues of Health and Safety amongst all our people, whether they are working in an office, a factory or a construction site environment, or in a combination of any of these environments.  This supplements comprehensive face to face training.

We constantly review our internal processes and question our methods to ensure we never stop improving our environmental, health and safety performances. Because we want Colt conditions to remain the best – for our customers, for our employees and for all around us.
