Global production sectors are responsible for a fifth of carbon emissions and consume a whopping 54% of the world’s energy sources. Many businesses within the manufacturing and engineering sectors are exploring ways to reduce their carbon footprint.
Lindhurst Engineering - and their problem-solving approach to business - is paving the way for a more energy efficient industry. The triple bottom line - people, profit and planet - makes Lindhurst an inspiration for businesses considering a more sustainable approach. We spoke to the company’s CEO, Martin Rigley, who has always championed business as a force for good, long before it was considered the thing to do.
Martin was awarded an MBE in 2016 for services to Business and Innovation.
