Our approach to environmental sustainability is an ongoing journey of continuous improvement. We are committed to implementing practical, day-to-day changes in our operations to minimise our environmental impact.
This ambitious initiative is designed to minimise our environmental impact through a multi-faceted approach, targeting significant reductions in greenhouse gas emissions across all operations. Our plan encompasses investments in renewable energy, energy efficiency upgrades, sustainable supply chain practices, and innovative carbon offset projects.
By setting clear, measurable targets and leveraging cutting-edge technologies, we aim to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050, demonstrating our dedication to environmental stewardship and our role in combating climate change. This commitment not only aligns with global sustainability goals but also reflects our responsibility to our stakeholders and the communities we serve.

Our ISO 14001 accreditation ensures that we have a robust framework in place for managing our environmental responsibilities. We are audited every 3 years and have maintained our status the since 2016.
• 90% of green vehicles in the fleet
• 50% fewer international flights
• 80% fewer domestic flights, in favour of train journeys
Harmony Fire’s first commitment is to monitor its energy consumption.
Action plans exist for each of our office locations:
• Accurate analysis of electricity consumption will allow potential savings to be identified, such as
consumption at night.
• Greening of the fleet: choosing less energy-consuming vehicles running on alternative fuels such as NGV, electricity or
even hydrogen.
• Planning Roll out ISO 50001 certification for energy management.
• Maintain our ISO 14001 certification.
• Purchase carbon-free electricity
• Utilise energy-saving site welfare (connected and better insulated)
Identification of priority categories:
• Timber, steel, fuel, freight, facades, external joinery, flooring, partitioning, insulation, energy networks, cables, lighting, fire stopping materials.
Category managers have been appointed for each of these purchasing families.
Their role is to:
• Evaluate the CO2 emissions of each category.
• Ensure materials are sourced from the nearest available provider to avoid excessive road travel.
• Determine targets and action plans to reduce the carbon footprint.
• Measure the effectiveness of actions (reduction of CO2)
• Work with suppliers on economical low-carbon solutions
• Improve availability of supplier data (environmental product declarations, etc.)
Verify through surveys that services provided to our customers are legally required, validate the need for
the scope that will allow for cost savings and to savings on materials.
Strengthen existing partitions or fire stopping elements, when possible, to save materials.
Telephones
The range of phones is currently under review. Options are being considered: the DAAS (“Device As A Service”) model, reconditioned mobile phones, changes to conditions for renewing phones to keep them active for as long as they are working, etc.
Reconditioned PCs
Some PCs can be given a second life in the company, e.g. technical PCs.
Data centres
Rationalise the network of servers, remove dormant data, etc.
