Tissino launches sustainability initiative to cut carbon emissions

Bathroom manufacturer Tissino has announced the launch of a new sustainability initiative, as it looks to reduce its carbon emissions.
It will focus on Tissino’s delivery service, which will move to allocated delivery days – on average between two and three per retailer per week – which is expected to reduce carbon emissions by 25% and save an estimated 42.5 tonnes per year.
Tissino will still offer next day delivery to retailers for a nominal fee of £10 which will be used to plant a tree through the company’s new partnership with Treeapp.

Since the initiative launched at the start of the month, Tissino has planted enough trees to asorb 16.35 tonnes of CO2 in their lifetime, along with 240m2 of land reforested.
As well as launching the new delivery initiative, the company has also moved to LED lighting in its warehouse, expected to save 113 tonnes of CO2 over 15 years.
In addition, it has purchased electric forklift trucks and domestic and warehouse waste is recycled, which has generated 12 tonnes of RDF (refuse derived fuel) – enough to drive 29,020 miles in an electric car during a 12-month period.
Transport manager at Tissino Alan Carter said: “As a company, we are fully committed to our responsibility in helping to reduce emissions and move towards Net Zero.
“It continues to be an on-going journey, but we are constantly evaluating and looking at ways we can improve our sustainability.
“We’ve had great feedback from retailers about a move to dedicated delivery dates, as they understand the bigger picture, though we do offer next day delivery still for any very urgent jobs which are offset by our tree planting scheme.”
Tissino has recently extended support for bricks and mortar showrooms, with its Exclusiva range.

Sintered stone manufacturer Neolith has launched Calacatta Roma and Cappadocia Sunset, inspired by nature and classical architecture, and for use in kitchens or bathrooms walls, floors, in gardens or facades.
They belong to The New Classtone and Fusioncollections which interpret marble and natural stone, respectively, and boast Neolith’s antibacterial NeolEAT technology.
Inspired by Ancient Rome, Calacatta Roma (pictured top) pays homage to Italian Carrara marble, with ochre and grey veins in a white background.
While the Cappadocia region, in central Turkey, with its rock formations formed by volcanoes and underground cities, has inspired Cappadocia Sunset (pictured below).

Just like all of Neolith’s surfaces, Calacatta Roma and Cappadocia Sunset are resistant to heat and atmospheric conditions, are 100% recyclable, and do not contain added quartz to their formulation.
