Shaping a Sustainable Future
Having a positive impact on the environment is at the heart of everything we do. From the way we operate and what we do with our waste, to our packaging and the impact of our products on heating system efficiency, we’re committed to making a real difference.
Our Mission
As part of Genuit Group, we’re committed to reducing absolute scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions to 30% by 2027, increasing annual sourcing of renewable electricity from 94% in 2021 to 100% by 2030. Genuit Group further commits that 83% of its suppliers will have science-based emissions target for goods and services by 2027.
What we’re doing about it
We’re on a mission to make big changes that have a positive
impact on the environment. That means not just looking at what our products do,
but how we make them, package them, and ship them too.
So far we’ve made a difference by:
- Switching to more sustainable product packaging, reducing card use by 72 tonnes per year.
- Reducing the weight in our packaged product to save on transport weight, saving 128 gallons of fuel per year.
- Moving to digital product manuals in all our
boxes, reducing paper use by 3 tonnes per year.
- Removing excess plastic from boxes, reducing plastic use by 5.5 tonnes.
- Introducing hybrid & electric cars to the ADEY fleet.
- Recycling 97% of our waste within 5 miles of HQ.
- Sourcing materials locally where possible.
- Introducing movement sensors to lighting at our
facilities.

Keeping heating systems clean
Our products don’t just save money, they help the planet
too. Designed to keep heating systems working to their optimum efficiency, our
filters, chemicals and ADEY Best Practice® process prevent one of the most
common causes of heating system breakdown; poor water quality.
Following the ADEY Best Practice® can:
- Reduce carbon emissions by up to 7% per home per year.
- Reduce gas use by up to 7% per home per year.
- Increase boiler life by up to 7 years.
What does all this mean?
The steps we’ve taken to make environmental improvements,
and the fact that our filters are now installed in over 10 million homes
globally means we’ve managed to reduce the carbon equivalent to:
Offsetting 774,000 cars a year. That’s
equivalent to taking all the cars in Iceland of the road twice over.
Offsetting over 200,000 around the world flights
Switching off 34.2 million kettles
Contributing to BIG change
There are a number of exciting research projects that we’re
proud to support.
Organisations including UCL, the University of Oxford, the
Energy Demand Observatory and Laboratory (EDOL), and the University of Birmingham
are working on projects to develop advanced technologies aimed at recycling
more complex materials.
And we continue to work to make a difference in Government
too.
In 2023,
we lobbied the Government
to include water treatment in their
Help for Households campaign to raise awareness of the impact of poor water
quality on the cost of living for homeowners. You can see deep clean in the Government

We’re dedicated to making a difference, so we’re not
stopping there.
