Wates’ site offices
Wates is leading the way in improving staff site comfort while reducing carbon emissions and waste – all on a tight budget.
Remanufactured furniture is providing Wates with a range of environmental, social and economic benefits
Retaining Staff
With remanufactured furniture, Wates is able to afford attractive and comfortable ergonomic seating and desking.
This solves the problem of site-based staff feeling undervalued compared to office-based staff who have historically had better quality furniture.
It also provides a more professional environment for hosting clients on site.
Environmental Benefits
Choosing remanufactured furniture has enabled Wates to:
- reduce carbon emissions
- reduce site waste (the furniture is re-homed by Rype at the end of each project)
- improve the sustainability score of its proposals
- demonstrate sustainability innovation and leadership to clients
All without adding cost or compromising on quality.
