Aico signals full commitment to Climate Pledge

By becoming a signatory of the Climate Pledge, Aico – the specialist developer of fire and carbon monoxide detection systems – is committing to three principal areas of action: regular reporting, carbon elimination and credible offsets.

In essence, the business will regularly measure and report its greenhouse gas emissions, implement decarbonisation strategies throughout its practices and neutralise remaining emissions to achieve net zero ahead of the Paris Agreement.

This announcement aligns with further efforts and commitments made by Aico in the drive towards climate action. The company’s dedicated Corporate Social Responsibility programme has a core focus on environmental impact. Through this, Aico works alongside local and national organisations to promote awareness of the urgent need for climate action and the need to solve the challenges of decarbonisation and share practical solutions in order to deliver a more sustainable future.

Lee Duffy, operations and learning and development manager at Aico, commented: “We’re in the middle of a climate crisis. If we don’t take action now, we may do catastrophic damage to our planet. Sustainability is within our core values as a business and we’re passionate about making long-term change. By collaborating with other organisations through becoming a signatory of the Climate Pledge, we can begin to learn how to make a difference and support others on their journey. The first element is all about awareness, then it’s on to action and then finally to solutions.”
