Introduction
Benning Brothers Limited (BBL) is a trusted specialist in structural repairs, refurbishment and maintenance services across the UK. With a commitment to quality and sustainability, the company continuously seeks eco-friendly solutions to enhance site operations and reduce environmental impact.
The Requirement
BBL required an on-site welfare solution that was both practical and environmentally responsible. Traditional diesel-powered welfare units were costly and did not support their sustainability objectives. They needed a compact yet efficient welfare unit that could provide essential amenities, including a canteen, while minimising carbon emissions.
The Solution
BBL partnered with ecowelfare to introduce a fully solar-powered 12ft welfare unit, featuring a canteen, one toilet and a drying room. This self-sufficient unit provided workers with a comfortable and hygienic space to rest, eat and change, ensuring site welfare needs were met without relying on fuel-powered alternatives. The unit’s energy-efficient design supported BBL’s commitment to sustainability while improving operational efficiency.
The Conclusion
- Zero fuel costs – Fully solar-powered operation, eliminating diesel reliance.
- Over 76 litres of fuel saved – Lowering operational expenses and reducing environmental impact.
- Over 243kg of CO2 emissions avoided – Supporting BBL’s sustainability objectives.
- Improved workforce wellbeing – Providing essential welfare facilities, including a canteen, enhancing comfort and productivity.
