Sheffield wire joiner manufacturer Gripple achieves carbon neutrality

Gripple, the manufacturer of wire joiners and tensioners and suspension systems, has released its 2022 Sustainability Progress Report which outlines how it has achieved its first sustainability goal: carbon neutral across its UK operations.

Sheffield-based Gripple said it has managed to achieve emission reduction targets, supplemented with sustainable offsetting to deliver no net impact on the environment.

In 2022, Gripple said it reduced its electricity usage from the national grid by four per cent compared to the previous year, despite adding a new manufacturing site to its UK operations.
