Sustainability

Sustainability and risk management

Managing risks, thinking about your ability to do business into the future, fairness to people and the environment – is innate in everything we do. A lot of our sustainability work does not fit into other categories and we feel it is so important that it warrants its own section.

Do you understand the risks posed to you and your business by resource scarcity, climate change, water shortage, energy restrictions, food shortage … ?

The future can seem unnerving, but we can choose to do something about it. Wax has lead in sustainable design for the last 5 years, and has been worked with organisations in the UK and around the world.

Sustainable design is about forward thinking, risk management and ensuring profitable business. Wax’s work includes:

  • Designing resource-efficient business models, products and services
  • Calculating impacts, benefits and Return on Investment (RoI) of strategies and design concepts
  • Helping increase industry knowledge of sustainable strategies

Wax’s expertise in sustainability will:

  • Increase your brand values
  • Help you reduce environmental risks
  • Help you enter sustainable supply chains

Wax’s experienced team does this by:

  1. Understanding you, your products/services, customers, supply chain, competition and drivers including legislation
  2. Lifecycle Thinking (LCT) and Lifecycle Assessment (LCA) to establish priorities for action
  3. Producing sustainable strategies and products/services to meet the identified needs
  4. Working with your teams to develop the designs
  5. Completion on time and to budget

Please get in touch, to discuss your needs and how Wax can help you raise the funding you need.
