TAPEREDPLUS has achieved the globally recognised B Corp accreditation as it works to design and supply flat roofing and insulation systems that optimise the energy efficiency of buildings.
Similar to Fair Trade, B Corp acknowledges TaperedPlus’s commitment to using business as a positive force by making decisions that serve communities, consumers, employees and the environment.
The Stockton-on-Tees headquartered business, which has a technical design studio in Wolverhampton, underwent a rigorous assessment to ensure it meets the highest standard of social and environmental performance, public transparency, and legal accountability.
A national leader in the design and supply of flat roofing and other insulation systems across residential, commercial, and industrial sectors, TaperedPlus already holds the ISO9001 quality management accreditation.
The independent company is experiencing increased demand for insulation due to spiralling energy costs combined with moves to upgrade older structures to non combustible materials. It recently launched a solution for a specific problem within the construction industry by developing ROCKdeck, a non-combustible insulation system capable of increased point load performance.
CEO Aman Chahal said: “B Corp accreditation not only represents a milestone for TaperedPlus, but it’s a testament to our commitment to creating positive changes as a business.
We are one of the first companies within the roofing industry to become certified and hope that others in the wider construction sector will follow our example.
“We believe in the power of sustainable practices and responsible business, and this accreditation reaffirms our dedication to shaping a future where environmental consciousness and ethical values lead the way.”
