F Lloyd is a sustainable warehousing company with solar power, electric vehicles, and zero-waste policies. Choose eco-friendly logistics today!

Everyone at F Lloyd Penley is dedicated to delivering a seamless experience that meets all the needs of modern industry. As businesses put sustainability at the centre of their operations more and more, that includes offering a more environmentally friendly service in all areas.

By doing so, you can choose F Lloyd Penley for your warehousing, transport and logistics solutions in the knowledge that we are doing everything we can to get your Scope 3 carbon emissions down and assist in your ESG reporting.


Solar power

In 2023, we completed the installation of 1,000 solar panels at our warehouse which generate almost half a megawatt of power each year. By investing more than £500,000 into renewable energy, we have been able to completely power our facility in a clean way that does not require the use of any fossil fuels.


In fact, our solar panels produce so much power that we even have excess to sell back to the National Grid and help power other businesses around us.


Installing this solar panel array was just one way in which we are aiming to reach Net Zero carbon by 2030.


Electric vehicles


Another way that we prioritise environmental responsibility is through making our daily operations more energy efficient. Solar power for the buildings is one good step, but we are also investing to electrify our fleet of heavy goods vehicles and forklift machinery.


By doing so, we will be able to reduce our reliance on fossil fuels even further and offer an eco-friendly warehousing, transport and logistics service to customers from our base at Wrexham Industrial Estate.


Heating and hot water

The final step in cutting out fossil fuels is the electrification of our heating and hot water system to remove the need to oil burning systems entirely. That work is ongoing and once complete, will cut our carbon emissions even further.


If you are looking for a warehousing, transport and logistics service that can make your own business more environmentally friendly, F Lloyd Penley is the right choice for you.


Zero waste to landfill

Being a sustainable business isn’t all about carbon emissions, however. The last piece of the jigsaw is implementing a zero-to-landfill waste policy.


Our sector inherently creates a lot of waste due to the nature of the work, but what you do with that waste is the important thing. Our policy ensures that our target is always to recycle or reuse materials wherever possible.


By looking at the whole lifecycle of everything that we handle, we can be a more sustainable warehousing company and offer a better service to customers.


Looking for a reliable warehousing, logistics and transportation partner? We offer more than just the service and can provide you sustainability benefits too. Get in touch with the team today to learn more.
