Certification story

Westminster Stone Company has achieved the Planet Mark certification.

In this Decade of Action, the company want to ensure that they are a force for good: positively transforming society and the planet by reducing any negative impact on the environment.

Westminster Stone Company is working with Planet Mark to reduce carbon emissions and share its journey with its community to inspire others. By being more strategic about its environmental responsibility, they will be able to increase its positive impact significantly and hopes to encourage continual improvements within its community.

Through Planet Mark, Westminster Stone Company has protected endangered rainforests thanks to Cool Earth; a charity working alongside rainforest communities to halt deforestation. Its pledge through Cool Earth directly supports the Asháninka community in Central Peru.

They have also helped the Eden Project – an educational charity building connections with each other and the living world, exploring how we can work together towards a better future.

Future targets

Reduce carbon emissions by at least 2.5% each year

To recertify next year Westminster Stone Company must reduce emissions by 2.5%.

Aim to reduce carbon emissions by 5% each year

A 5% year-on-year reduction is the target reduction recommended by Planet Mark.
