Here at Upton we continually look for ways in which we can work in harmony with the environment and reduce our environmental impact. Our newest green initiative coming soon in 2009 is an on-site biomass boiler; utilising timber waste and turning it into a renewable energy source.

The woodland at Upton is managed via a Woodland Management Plan. The timber waste from this is taken and dried naturally through the summer months. Timber is then chipped on site and stored. The biomass boiler will then feed from the stored wood chip, and burn it producing green energy for the new industrial units. In summary waste is turned into energy on site thus dramatically reducing our environmental impact. |
