Corporate Social Responsibility

At Labcold, putting our People First is more than a value - it’s our way of life. We are proud to make a positive difference through responsible practices, eco-conscious innovation and by giving back to the communities we serve.

Sustainability and Environment

We are committed to reducing our environmental impact and supporting a greener future through:

  • Durable Products: Designed to last, reducing waste and replacement frequency.
  • Service and Support: A dedicated team of engineers help extend product life, reducing unnecessary disposal.
  • Reduced Packaging: Ongoing efforts to minimise packaging materials.
  • WEEE Disposal: Responsible end-of-life product disposal in line with WEEE regulations.
  • Emissions Reduction: Continuous drive to lower our carbon footprint across the business.
  • Renewable Energy Partners: We work with manufacturing partners who use renewable energy sources such as solar.
  • Emissions Reduction: Our company cars are hybrid and electric - ensuring our carbon footprint is reduced as much as possible. 

Ethical Supply Chain

Our commitment to ethical business practices extends to every part of our supply chain. We prioritise a short, EU-based supply chain, which not only helps reduce carbon emissions from transportation but also allows us to maintain closer oversight and stronger relationships with our suppliers. We carefully vet each supplier to ensure they meet our high standards for quality, expertise and ethical conduct, including strict policies against child labour and exploitation.

By maintaining transparency and ensuring our partners share our values, we can confidently provide products that are not only of the highest quality but also ethically sourced and manufactured. This commitment to ethics and sustainability strengthens the trust we have built with our customers and partners.

Community Engagement

We believe in the power of giving back and making a positive impact on the communities where we operate. At Labcold, we support a range of charitable causes, including long-term partnerships with Hampshire Hospitals Charity and Naomi House and Jacksplace, both of which provide vital care and support to families in need.

Additionally, we are proud sponsors of a local girls' football team, encouraging young women to participate in sports and promoting health, teamwork and equality. We also provide work experience placements for students and young people, offering valuable opportunities for career development and exposure to the world of work.

You may have seen our penguins out and about - a fun and friendly part of our community presence and brand identity. They bring smiles, spark conversations and help us stay connected with our customers. 

People and Workplace

At Labcold, we recognise that our people are our greatest asset. We are committed to providing a supportive, inclusive and dynamic workplace where everyone has the opportunity to grow and thrive. We believe in fostering a culture that prioritises personal and professional development, as well as the overall wellbeing of our team.

  • Training and Development: We offer ongoing professional development to ensure that our employees have the resources and opportunities they need to advance in their careers.
  • Health and Wellbeing: We promote mental and physical wellness through various initiatives, ensuring that our team feels supported in every aspect of their work and life.
  • Equality and Diversity: We strive to maintain a workplace where all employees feel valued and respected, regardless of their background or identity.
  • Employee Empowerment: We foster an environment where everyone feels motivated to contribute their best work, encouraging creativity, collaboration, and growth.

Our commitment to our people is the foundation of everything we do, and we continually work towards making Labcold a place where everyone can excel.
