Fix Auto Buckingham and Fix Auto Loughborough have secured their PAS 2060 accreditations, with the support of Purchase Direct.
Fix Auto Buckingham owner Richard Taylor, said, “We have long operated as lean and carbon neutral as possible. In fact, we really were ahead of the game in terms of the systems we have had in place for a long time. We invested in energy efficient LED lighting five years ago and then, just prior to Covid, we installed a large bank of solar panels and have long had various recycling programmes in place for our waste plastic and cardboard.
“Operating a carbon neutral repair centre must be a goal of every repairer in the country. Numerous sites within the Fix Auto UK network are already PAS 2060 certified and are leading the way for the industry with numerous initiatives to ensure their carbon footprints are dramatically reduced year-on-year, I am just delighted to be joining them.”
Paul Smith, owner of Fix Auto Loughborough, added, “We were one of the first businesses in Loughborough to invest significantly in solar panels to help power the site. That was several years ago, and we have since built on that platform by constantly introducing various initiatives to reduce our carbon footprint. Receiving PAS 2060 certification completes the process.”
