Our Journey To Carbon Neutral
To be carbon neutral across all our operations by 2040.
We believe businesses and individuals, whatever their size and influence, have a responsibility to act on global warming. At Anchor Magnets, we are committed to becoming a carbon neutral business to reduce our impact on the planet, helping us fulfil our obligations to the environment and the wider global community.
The way to carbon neutrality
We have always believed conservation, managing waste levels and working smarter is at the heart of good business practice. Our major milestones have been...

The waste collected from our factory is converted into energy by our partners Veolia, and all of our packaging waste is also collected and recycled. Working with Sheffield Hallam University, our R&D team are researching and developing new products from product waste that is generated during the manufacturing process. This upcycling programme is the future of our waste management strategy.
We have saved 50 tons of carbon dioxide by shipping goods directly to customers in the EU, from our German warehouse since October 2019.

Being conscious of our environmental responsibilities is at the centre of everything we do...
Energy Efficiency
We have installed double glazing in all our factory and office windows. We have also replaced all our lights to LED lighting where possible.
New Product Development

We have also designed and manufactured consumer products such as our warmroom® Magnetic Radiator Heat Saver to help households save on energy consumption.
Manufacturing
We have removed all harmful chemicals from our products, and all of our products comply with European safety standards. All products comply with EN71 part 3 and are REACH and RoHS approved.
