Proport Eco-Services

Sustainable Homes and Businesses

Summary

We provide a range of services to businesses and members of the public - all aimed at making homes and businessess more sustainable. Should you be saving energy, reducing the size of your carbon footprint, saving water, recycling or buying green products? Even if you decide you should – where do you start, what are the priorities and does it actually cost more than it saves? Then there’s the internet – too much information, often conflicting and in some cases completely impracticable. We can help businesses identify what they can do to ensure they reduce the risk of infringing legislation, save money and give them a competitive edge. For individuals we can help you assess your carbon footprint in detail, identify your main impacts on the environment and develop a practical and understandable action plan.
