At Initial Singapore, we’re on a mission to develop effective hygiene solutions that make the spaces people visit and work in safer and healthier while helping to preserve the planet.
As humans continue to impact our planet, global warming and urbanisation are combining to create environments where bacteria can breed and spread more easily, increasing risks to public health and business operations.
At Initial, we help businesses to provide hygienic environments that support the health and wellbeing of their people and customers. As one of the world’s leading hygiene services providers, we know we have a responsibility to take action across our business, help our customers deliver on their own sustainability goals with confidence and drive change towards more eco-friendly solutions in our industry.
By innovating across our supply chain and product pipelines, we deliver more environmentally-friendly hygiene solutions to more businesses globally. We’re taking the necessary steps – such as reducing the plastic in packaging and products combined by 237.5 tonnes – to help our customers tackle their environmental impact while working towards our own goal of reaching net-zero emissions by 2040.
We’ve got sustainability firmly in mind in our product development process. That’s why we’re using more sustainable materials from the very beginning of product life and across entire product life cycles.
From consumables containing no harmful chemicals or microplastics to products with sustainability accreditation, we’re doing our bit to create hygiene solutions that benefit the environment as well as our customers.
We’re ranked highly by multiple sustainability accreditation schemes. Our Ecolabel-certified products have demonstrated a reduced environmental impact – from the extraction of raw materials in production to their use and disposal. With these accreditations, our customers can trust that we offer reliable and sustainable alternatives to conventional washroom products.
Our sensitive foam soap contains 98.5% natural ingredients, making it kind to the environment and your skin. All soaps are dermatologically and toxicology tested, and we only use environmentally friendly, recyclable and collapsible refill containers to reduce soap wastage.
Our Ecoclear WC and urinal fluid contains no harmful biocides but remains highly effective at reducing scale, bacteria and odour. The pine EcoBoost Fragrance is specially formulated from natural and renewable ingredients to use fewer raw materials and reduce the energy used in manufacturing, packaging, transport and disposal.
We’re analysing all aspects of our operations, workplaces and supply chain, working with our people to build a culture of sustainability throughout the company and ensure we’re proactively taking measures to reduce our environmental impact.
Sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. Whether it’s transitioning to electric vehicles across our fleet, switching to green energy tariffs across our properties or choosing to source from sustainable suppliers, we’re taking steps to deliver on our net-zero commitments.
Initial is a member of EV100 – a global initiative bringing together companies committed to accelerating the transition to electric vehicles. Our goal is to have 100% ultra-low-emission vehicle (ULEV) fleets in the UK and Europe by 2030 and 100% globally by 2040.
In 2021, our new, dedicated Research and Development centre opened to drive our leadership in sustainable innovation and product development. Our expert teams are 100% focused on projects led by sustainability and the building itself received the BREEAM Excellent rating for sustainability performance.
Our target is for 90% of our properties globally to use renewable energy by 2030, supporting a more sustainable workplace. Over the last five years, we’ve consolidated our property portfolio and improved energy efficiency by 58%.
Our aim is to measure and reduce the waste we generate as a business to zero landfill and incineration while increasing the use of recycled materials in our products and across our operations.
We’re committed to reducing the environmental impact of our waste. Our goal is for 100% of our waste material to be reused, recycled or repurposed for conversion into energy by 2035.
Since May 2020, we’ve reduced our use of plastic in packaging and products combined by 237.5 tonnes. We’ve also switched to 100% recyclable tissue paper for the packaging of our Reflection units to save an estimated half a tonne of plastic waste from landfill annually.
Following successful trials, we've removed two grams of virgin plastic from every soap and UltraProtect™ bottle, saving an estimated four tonnes of plastic waste annually from going to landfill. By switching to using 30% recycled plastic in all medical waste bags, we're saving an estimated 80 tonnes of virgin plastic annually.
We’re taking action to increase battery and plastic recycling. In the Pacific region, 40 tonnes of batteries have been diverted from landfills, and 45% have been recycled. In the UK and Europe, we’re now recycling 50% of all batteries and plastic recycling has reached 71%.
We build long-term partnerships that support greater biodiversity and benefit the environment for future generations.
As leaders in global hygiene facilities, we recognise the importance of acting responsibly and consider the ethical, environmental and social impact of our ongoing partnerships. Moving forward, we’ve pledged to only work with suppliers that align with our environmental values and will continue to establish strong relationships with environmental charities and communities across the world to support their work in fighting the climate crisis.
Rentokil Initial Cares is our global charity and community programme supporting colleagues’ charitable efforts locally alongside national and global initiatives. We support a wide range of initiatives in line with the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
Through our partnership with environmental charity Cool Earth, we’re supporting communities in Papua New Guinea, Mozambique and Cameroon, to protect 42,000 hectares of rainforest, equivalent to 8 million tonnes of stored carbon.
We’ve funded the installation of seven 9,000-litre rainwater-harvesting tanks to provide clean drinking water during droughts. We’ve also supported Cool Earth’s biodiversity officers in Wabumari to help community members keep an eye on forest wildlife.
We seek accreditation and certification by independent organisations covering a wide range of our business operations so we can verify our efforts at sustainability. These include:
We provide the most comprehensive range of hygiene solutions to deliver the service that meets your individual needs.
