JELD-WEN, the manufacturer of timber fire doorsets, has reported a 10% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions since 2021 across its global footprint, as it continues to target net zero in its operations.
The results published in the company’s 2024 Sustainability Report reflect the progress JELD-WEN has made in embedding sustainability into its operations, from energy efficiency upgrades to improved resource management and renewable energy use.
Building on this progress, JELD-WEN has also announced the relocation of its Sheffield operations to a new, purpose-built facility at Bessemer Park, designed to support sustainable manufacturing. The modern site is being developed to improve operational efficiency, reduce environmental impact and provide an enhanced working environment for employees.
Director of operations, Hamish White, says “Sustainability is at the heart of how we operate, we’re investing in efficient technology, renewable energy and responsible processes that make a measurable difference to our carbon footprint, all while ensuring we continue to deliver the quality and reliability our customers expect.”
