Green Gain takes centre stage at EcoFair 2016


On the 15th June, the Green Gain Directors Steven Ogden and Ashley Robb presented at EcoFair, the largest B2B environmental event in the north of England.

In its seventh year, EcoFair brings together business and technical environmental expetise in areas such as energy, carbon reduction, regulation, the built environment and the circular economy.

Green Gain presented two case studies of resource efficient business models that we have recently helped to take forward.

The first case study considered Fresh-pak Chilled Foods, the UK’s largest manufacturer of deli-fillings. Green Gain has been supporting them to review their operations in order to improve their overall operational efficiency. Adopting Green Gain's Accelerator programme has helped the business to review and rethink how they deliver their day-to-day business has helped Fresh-Pak uncover six figure savings and win an Asda sustainability award.



The second case study reviewed the work Green Gain delivered to help support the growth and commercialisation of Restructa in Scotland who have developed a high-value product from a low-value material. Restructa produce a decorative aggregate from the panel glass from Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) television screens. The product has great ‘sustainability’ credentials, and is extremely versatile being used for a number of landscaping applications. Our presentation will took the audience through the journey of progressing the product from conception to commercialisation.


Full copies of the presentations can be obtained by contacting: info@greengain.co.uk, along with details of how we can support your business to do the same.
