China is experiencing rapid growth in industrial robotics usage driven by two key factors: an aging workforce and rising labor costs. The number of industrial robots purchased in China has more than doubled from 2015 to 2018, with China expected to have over 150,000 robots purchased annually by 2018. Lower robot part costs are also incentivizing more automation as manufacturers seek to control expenses. In response, the Chinese government is actively supporting expansion of robotics research and production through subsidies. This rise in automation will significantly impact global supply chains by allowing for faster production and delivery while controlling labor costs.

2014 saw the launch of our Open Beta GoMarketWise Web
Application. We’ve developed this comparison tool to support
sustainability professionals who are searching for ways to measure
and monitor their sustainability data.
We completely understand the complexities of managing the
different data streams, whether it’s environmental, health and safety,
risk, compliance, community investment, supply chain and many
others. We created this application as a first step towards finding
the right software solution to manage that data.
Over 25 software vendors registered with the Open Beta Application
in 2014 and in 2015 we aim to engage an additional 50 software
vendors. 2015 will see us take GoMarketWise from Open Beta to
a fully professional, finished product, free to use, for anyone in our
industry.

Our...Water usage
Although we are not a manufacturer
using water for production, being a
British company we drink a lot of tea!
Saying that, our water use and wastage
is taken very seriously; we aim to take
the necessary measures as well as
incorporate any workable innovative
water saving or recycling measures we
can come up with. All staff value and
understand the importance of these
measures.
All our tea bags are ethically sourced and composted each week!

SustainIt are thoroughly committed to reduce the water use
in our offices. In 2014 we focussed on water reduction having
implemented water efficiencies in 2013. Our targets for 2015
are to implement grey water recycling measures.
The great news for us is that our water consumption continues
to fall. This year we have managed to reduce the total water
used by each employee.

Our...Energy use
Although this year we have expanded our
teams we have still managed to reduce
our energy consumption. Renting business
premises is always challenging and it sadly
means that we cannot install solar or
alternative heat sources. This hasn’t stopped
us trying to be creative in the way that we
preserve heat and save energy.
To minimise our energy usage we have
installed LED lighting throughout and
increased awareness within our offices of
switching off electronic equipment and
lights when not in use.

Our 2014 target was to
ensure that 0% of our
waste went to landfill
and we are very happy
that we managed to
achieve that.
Our policy was to
support employees to
bringinfewerpackaged
foods, reduce the
amount of food sent to
compost and aim to be
more paper free.
The items which
SustainIt proactively
recycle or compost
includes:
- Paper
- Cardboard
- Newspapers etc.
- Cans
- Plastic bottles
- Glass bottles and jars
- Food waste

Our...Carbon Footprint
With the changes in DEFRA’s guidance on emission
boundaries we felt it was important to update how
we gathered and report on our CO2 emissions.
With that in mind, we have adopted the new ‘Well
to Tank’ boundaries as recommended by DEFRA.
This means that more than 10% of our emissions
are now considered out of scope.
Using these new guidelines, only 28% of our total
reported emissions are considered scope 1 or 2.
We’ve looked hard at our business travel this year,
and we’ve realised that while we’ve made good
progress in increasing our use of public transport
(only 1% of our emissions last year were from public
transport) we think we can do more.
So for 2015 we have set ourselves a target of
reducing our total emissions from car journeys to
less than 1.3 tonnes of CO2e (that’s a 20% reduction
compared to this year).

Our team...
We encourage creativity, which means we enjoy
homemade company lunches, where everyone
brings something they’ve made to share.
Recently in our Bristol office we had a rainbow
meal and everyone was given a colour to work
with (we do have a rule of no beige food!), this
can be interesting as we have a wide range of
cooking skills amongst us.
SustainIt is a family business; we aim to make the
atmosphere here hardworking but happy and enjoyable.
We have many schemes and events designed to bring
out the best in our teams. Working across our different
time zones is challenging but it is amazing what you can
do with digital communication tools!

Training...
Kellogg School of Management Scholarship
In September 2014, Charlie earned a place to take part in the US
Scholarship Programme, organised by UKTI and the Ellis Goodman
Foundation. The 5-day intensive course took place at one of the
USA’s most distinguished business management schools, the Kellogg
School of Management, Northwestern University, Evanston, Illinois. The
subjects covered included negotiating practices and styles; economic,
legal and regulatory environments; developing strong business
networks; building a compelling brand; technology, social media and
mobile marketing; and selecting and managing channel partners.
“The US Scholarship Programme was an opportunity for me to think
through a clear strategy for developing our business in the USA and to
understand more about the challenges of doing business there,” said
Charlie. “It’s easy to think that because we have a common language,
what works in the UK will automatically work in the USA. But that’s
just not the case. By the end of the programme, I had a really good
understanding of how the US market works, the local business culture
and how Americans think and approach business. The information that
I came away with is already helping our sales teams when they talk to
US clients.”

Our community...
Volunteering
Each year SustainIt encourages each member of staff to
volunteer for 2 days. We aim to ensure that the projects
undertaken are local as well as supporting sustainability and
environmental issues.
2014 was a very active year for volunteering at SustainIt. Over
half of the employees took at least one of their volunteering
days.
We spent a day at the Avon Wildlife Trust helping them in
their mission to create a nature reserve in the Avon Gorge.
We also worked with the Square Food foundation at the BBC
Good Food Awards to create culinary delights for over 400
guests. The RSPCA Bristol Dogs and Cats Home needed
some help painting the room where the dogs meet their new
owners and we also got a chance to do some dog walking!
In the summer a couple of members of staff also did some
volunteering for homeless charities; this included sleeping
rough for a night for CEO SleepoutUK, raising £651 and
helping coordinate a shelter to provide thousands of meals
and sheltered accommodation over the Christmas period.
At SustainIt we strive to make a positive impact on our surrounding community.
Simply put, a business is nothing without the support and love of its community
and so we feel we have a moral obligation and a duty of care.
Charities we’ve supported this year
2014 was our most successful year so far for employees using their
volunteering days; we hope that 2015 will be even better. In 2015 we
are aiming for each employee to utilise their two volunteer days for
projects within our local communities in the UK and USA.
