  • Reducing waste to landfill
  • CO2 reductions
  • Water saving
  • Extended life models
  • Energy saving
  • Product selection
  • Operating other CSR initiatives.

The winning business will receive a prize of £1,500 and two runners-up will each be awarded £500. Nominations for the Planet Passionate Plumber competition are open until 11 September 2024 and the winners will be announced at the end of October 2024.

Ian Lock, Business Unit Director for Kingspan Cylinders, said: “This competition aims to inspire installers to be greener in their own businesses and reward those who are doing the right thing. We can’t wait to see the brilliant eco-friendly Planet Passionate ways of working that UK plumbing, heating, and bathroom fitting businesses have in place.”
