Buyers Guide 2023

10 | Plant & Works Engineering www.pwemag.co.uk Annual Buyers’ Guide 2023 Insight A large proportion of Turck Banner’s wide product range can be used in projects that fall within the category of sustainability, and although as a company it is not on an “Eco Crusade”, it does recognise that it can play its part in supporting the environment. Throughout the lifetime of the company it has supported many charities, and for 2023 it has started an initiative to plant trees. While there are many great charities and organisations set up to plant trees all across the world, the company has chosen to partner with Trees for Life, a charity established 25 years ago, dedicated to rewilding the Scottish Highlands - its target is to plant a grove of 2023 trees in 2023. Turck Banner says it will plant at least one tree for every project it is involved with if it fits the sustainability category. Because its customer base includes everyone from the corner shop to huge multinationals, it say it hasn’t set a fixed monetary criterion, i.e. one tree for every x number of pounds. However, it intends to plant a tree for all of them, regardless of the size of the project. Should it exceed its target, all further donations will be used in supporting Trees for Life’s other projects. Tony Coghlan, Managing Director of Turck Banner Ltd explained: “We have a huge amount of experience with these projects and are confident in the ROI, so it just feels right to Sustainability initiative to support environment For many years Turck Banner has been working with customers to improve efficiency in areas ranging from saving energy by using its LED lighting, through to identifying areas for improvement with OEE Kits.
