Low-flush toilets let gravity do its job…
Low-flush gravity toilets with optimised cistern and bowl designs use 4-6 litres of water per full flush. This system can help you save up to 6 litres of water per full flush compared to conventional systems.
Low-flush toilets are universal and can be easily fitted. Read ‘Cistern displacement or dual flush’ for other alternatives!
Try aerators to better regulate your shower and tap flow!
Aerators (flow regulator) are simple vacuum valves with an air intake that can be easily installed between the tap and hose, or between the hose and shower head.
Retrofitted to taps, the aerator – with or without flow regulators – can reduce the flow rate whilst generating less splashing to achieve better perceived ‘wet effect’ and efficiency.
Go with the (low) flow water fixture!
Low-flow water fixtures are a range of easily implementable technologies that help you save water and money by allowing the user to control how much water is consumed.
They use a high-pressure technique to produce a strong and consistent flow that actually uses less water than inefficient traditional fixtures. These clever fittings can be applied to sinks, showers, and toilets.
Implementing a virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) hosts a desktop operating system through a centralised server. This means no need for individual PCs, as employees access the system and their files via a standard keyboard and monitor. With VDI companies can implement a multi-user IT system at the fraction of the cost of conventional desktop stations.

Combined heat and power (CHP) helps to reduce total fossil fuel consumption from on-site boilers and the power stations they import electricity from. As such, CHP systems help to cut energy bills and the environmental footprint of a company. Recorded primary energy savings from CHP are around 18 %, and 28 % for small packaged CHP schemes.
