Sustainability

Introduction

At Lockabl, we are committed to conducting our business in a manner that is environmentally responsible and sustainable. As part of the TV and film production industry, we understand the impact that our operations can have on the environment, and we aim to align our efforts with the core values demonstrated by BAFTA’s Albert scheme. By integrating sustainability into every aspect of our business, we seek to minimise our environmental footprint while delivering the best possible service to our clients.

Our Commitment to Sustainability

Lockabl is dedicated to promoting environmental responsibility through the following key areas:

1. Carbon Footprint Reduction

We strive to reduce our carbon emissions by:

• Prioritising local suppliers and partners to reduce transportation distances.
• Utilising fuel-efficient vehicles for deliveries and exploring alternatives such as electric or hybrid vehicles where feasible.
• Encouraging staff to minimise travel-related emissions through the use of public transport, cycling, or car-sharing for work commutes and meetings.
• Offsetting our carbon emissions where reduction isn’t possible, working with verified carbon offset programmes that align with our values.

2. Energy Efficiency

We are committed to reducing energy consumption across our operations:

• Implementing energy-saving measures in our office spaces, such as energy-efficient lighting, heating, and cooling systems.
• Using renewable energy sources where possible, such as installing solar panels on office buildings.
• Encouraging the mindful use of energy by our employees, including powering down equipment when not in use.

3. Waste Management and Resource Use

We aim to reduce waste and increase recycling to minimise our environmental impact:

• Using recycled and eco-friendly materials wherever possible in our products and packaging.
• Working with suppliers who share our commitment to sustainability and encourage sustainable practices.
• Implementing recycling programmes at our office and in client interactions, with the goal of reducing landfill waste.
• Reducing paper use through digital solutions and promoting a paperless office.

4. Sustainable Sourcing

At Lockabl, we ensure that the products and services we use are sourced responsibly:

• Working with suppliers that adhere to environmentally friendly practices, including sustainable material sourcing and fair trade certifications.
• Selecting materials that have a minimal environmental impact, such as using FSC-certified wood and biodegradable or recyclable packaging materials.

5. Employee and Stakeholder Engagement

We believe that engaging our employees and stakeholders is key to driving change:

• Providing training and resources to employees to promote sustainability awareness and practices in both their personal and professional lives.
• Encouraging feedback from employees, clients, and partners to continuously improve our sustainability efforts.
• Collaborating with industry peers to promote best practices in sustainability across the events, TV and film and production sectors.
