Introduction
City Fire Proofing is a premier provider of integrated facilities management services across the UK, committed to delivering efficiency, safety and sustainability for its clients. As part of their drive to minimise environmental impact, they sought an eco-conscious welfare solution that would enhance working conditions for their on-site teams.

The Requirement
City Fire Proofing needed an on-site welfare unit that offered essential amenities while cutting operational expenses and reducing carbon emissions. Conventional diesel-powered units were not only costly but also misaligned with their sustainability strategy. They required a spacious, energy-efficient welfare facility that could support their workforce without relying on fossil fuels.
The Solution
To meet these needs, City Fire Proofing collaborated with ecowelfare to introduce a fully solar-powered 24ft welfare unit, accommodating up to 15 people. This modern unit featured a canteen, office space and two toilets, ensuring a high standard of comfort and functionality while eliminating the need for fuel-powered alternatives. The self-sufficient unit provided an environmentally responsible welfare solution, enhancing operational efficiency and employee wellbeing.
The Conclusion
- No fuel costs – Completely solar-powered, eliminating the need for diesel.
- Over 114 litres of fuel conserved – Lowering operational costs and environmental impact.
- More than 363kg of CO2 emissions avoided – Helping City Fire Proofing achieve its sustainability targets.
- Enhanced worker welfare – Delivering a comfortable, well-equipped space with essential facilities, boosting efficiency and morale.
