Nickel-Electro Ltd., a leading British manufacturer of temperature control equipment, is proud to support SLS Select Education with their sustainability initiative. This partnership highlights Nickel-Electro's commitment to environmental responsibility and aligns perfectly with SLS Select Education's dedication to providing more sustainable solutions for their customers.
Both Nickel-Electro and SLS Select Education recognise the importance of fostering a culture of sustainability within the scientific community. Nickel-Electro has a long history of environmentally conscious practices, integrating sustainability throughout their operations – from design conception, sourcing raw materials, to manufacturing products that are built to last, and which minimise environmental impact.
Nickel-Electro’s Clifton water baths have minimal energy requirements and the Shallowbath™ range helps reduce water consumption. Additionally, the bath armor™ beads offer a way to reduce energy use by 70% compared to a water-based alternative. The incubators utilise sheep's wool insulation, a natural and renewable resource providing highly efficient thermal insulation. Clifton support the "One Tree Planted" initiative. For every NE1D Educational digital bath sold, they donate to this cause, supporting global reforestation efforts. Explore our range of Clifton NED1 baths here.
Nickel-Electro’s dedication to sustainability extends beyond their products. The company actively minimise their environmental footprint through practices like using compostable and biodegradable packaging materials, partnering with local businesses for recycled cardboard, and even donating redundant metalware stock to a local Scrap Store for educational and community initiatives.
Behind the working factory is a vibrant wildlife garden, featuring fruit trees, bee hives and a fishpond. It’s a haven for wildlife on the busy Weston-super-Mare industrial estate. It’s also a place where staff can enjoy break times during their working day.
Nickel-Electro and SLS Select Education have a longstanding relationship extending over 20 years and it’s exciting to be working together on building a more sustainable future. By offering high quality, energy efficient products and fostering environmentally conscious practices, customers are empowered to make a positive impact on the planet.
