Education, participation, action and science are the foundations on which Instep Carbon & Sustainability Programmes have been established. Our step-by-step scientific process will educate and guide you through your programme enabling you to understand and maximise its benefits.

Instep programmes provides you with the knowledge to monitor and manage your carbon emission profile. Our regular personalised reports give you a full summary of your carbon emissions over selected periods, with recommendations and measures to reduce your emissions. Instep does not lock its business partners into offsetting, as we believe that your individual action is the key to sustainable development.

Instep offers 3 programmes to suit your needs.

A. Instep Carbon & Sustainability Programme

The basic Instep carbon footprint programme follows the internationally accepted WRI Greenhouse Gas Protocol methods with country specific emission factors. Programmes are designed to be completed over a 12 month period after which you gain full certification. The Carbon & Sustainability programme is suitable for businesses of all sizes and can be applied to residential or individual needs.

B. Greenhouse Gas Product Lifecycle

The Instep lifecycle assessment programme looks at the greenhouse gas emissions produced over the full lifecycle of a product using the recently published PAS 2050 Guidelines and dedicated software. This is a comprehensive programme with audit verification and labelling options.

C. Instep Sustainable Events Programme

The Instep Sustainable Events Programme (ISEP) helps events of any size understand their carbon footprint and enhance their sustainability on a wider scale. Using the British Standard 8901 we help to put in place sustainable management systems and can assess your events’ compliance.

Commercial

Enhanced credibility, new market opportunities, risk management, increased customer loyalty and long term business value are just a few of the benefits your business can reap by understanding and managing your carbon emissions. Being involved pro-actively in the Instep programme makes a statement about your business and the changes you are prepared to make to make a positive difference to our environment.

At Instep we believe that every business, small or large, should have the tools and knowledge to manage and reduce their emission profile. Many businesses want to take the initiative, but don’t know where to begin in this complex area. The Instep commercial package starts at the beginning of this journey with you. We calculate and report on your activity, giving you the knowledge to successfully manage and improve your operations. Reaching your company’s environmental goals has benefits that extend to your own customers and business interests, many of whom are making more purchasing decisions based on the ‘eco-credentials’ of the businesses they have to choose from.

We appreciate the fact that no business is the same and needs differ from one business to another. The Instep programme is tailored to each operation and may include common sources such as fuel and electricity consumption, refrigeration, waste and outsourced transport. Each report details greenhouse gas emissions over the last period, summarises resources use and gives guidance on reduction opportunities. Information can be shared with all staff members and will keep you motivated as you celebrate progress. The 12 month programme will identify trends and successfully implemented reductions as well as certifying your company’s overall carbon footprint profile.

Sustainable Events  

Attendees both national and international are becoming increasingly aware of the environmental impact of the events they attend. Many international artists, performers and musicians are voicing their wishes to participate in sustainable events.

With a strong scientific foundation backed by British Standard 8901 for sustainable event management, and the added experience of the Instep events team, the Instep Sustainable Events Programme (ISEP) offers sustainable solutions to any event. This enables you to maximise the credibility of both your event and your organisation.

The Instep Process

A carbon footprint measures the impact human activities have on Earth’s environment. It is expressed and measured in units of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e). This process is used by individuals and organizations to conceptualise the very real problem of climate change.

Step1. Education. Understanding how climate change and environmental issues are relevant to your own situation is the first step towards overall sustainability.

Step 2. Evaluate. We evaluate the most suitable of the Instep programmes for your activity and if required visit your premises and identify key emission sources to include in your profile.

Step 3. Quantify. We calculate and measure your carbon emissions using scientific methods based on international standards accepted globally.

Step 4. Manage. We send you regular reports with summaries of activity and recommendations on reducing your emissions further.

Step 5. Action. We believe your individual action is the ultimate key to fighting climate change and we encourage taking action as much as possible. The primary purpose of our regular reports is for you to see, understand and reduce your footprint.

Step 6. Certification. On joining an Instep programme, members receive a Bronze participation certificate, which shows that you have taken the initiative to manage your carbon emissions. On completion of the programme Instep does a full reassessment of your carbon footprint and certifies your operation depending on the target achieved. We then discuss goals for the future and how we can work together to achieve these agreed goals. The core focus of the Instep programme is emission reduction. If you have achieved a reduction in your carbon profile, you will receive Silver certification. Members who reach their reduction target are awarded Gold certification.

What’s different about us?

By joining the Instep programme you are making a conscious decision to do something positive about a global problem. At Instep we believe that without first understanding your own impacts, one cannot take the right action. As the old saying goes, ‘prevention is better than cure’. We strongly believe that your individual awareness and action has a more positive impact on our environment than the purchasing of carbon ‘offsets’.

Any effects of climate change cannot be reversed overnight, however you may be surprised how small changes through the Instep programmes can make a big difference to your own situation. At Instep, we like to look at the positive things you can do, and they might be easier than you think. Our experience has shown that if ‘you measure it –you manage it’. Our regular reports will show you the tangible benefits that your actions are having and will help to keep you motivated.

B1G1

We believe that those fortunate enough to be in business should give back to the people and communities who played parts in creating the business opportunity. More times than not, many of the people who do the real work realize almost nothing from the end success of the enterprise.

In our case, the hyper-competitive and labor intensive textile industry rarely gives back to the farmers and laborers who are essential to bringing products to market. That is why we are committed to contributing US$1.25 of every organic T-shirt we sell each year to a nominated hunger project in India - a project in the communities that believe in. As we grow, we plan to lead these projects ourselves - planning for clinics, school, nutrition and books.

Help us grow and you will help the infants to grow and care about the farmers and workers and buyers that help us!
