FIX AUTO EDINBURGH WEST’S PAS 2060 HIT

back to News

Fix Auto Edinburgh West is the latest Franchise Partner from within Fix Auto UK’s network to achieve carbon neutral status in line with PAS 2060.


The Scottish business has invested in energy efficient LED lighting and undertaken numerous other measures to successfully gain its PAS 2060 certification. Achieving carbon neutrality further demonstrates the repairer’s commitment to their customers and supply chain.

To assist them in their carbon neutral journey, the repairer engaged with energy and carbon specialists – ECA business energy.

Working with the team, ECA calculated the carbon footprint for the site, created and implemented a comprehensive carbon management plan and invested in verified carbon offsetting programs.

The implementation of the carbon management plan will see them committing to reducing their emissions to agreed targets as set out in the plan year-on-year moving forwards.

Michael Kinnell, Bodyshop Manager at Fix Auto Edinburgh West, commented: “Like so many of our fellow Franchise Partners we recognise the importance of being as sustainable as possible and, while it is becoming ever-more a prerequisite of our corporate work providers, in reality it is our responsibility to act now and do our bit to help the planet. Working towards our PAS 2060 has been a great exercise for the business for it has helped up focus ourselves on adopting processes to help reduce our carbon footprint. This is just the start for us. Our aim now is to continue and reduce it even further.”

Steve Silverwood, Managing Director for ECA, added: “We are pleased to have worked closely with yet another Fix Auto UK repairer to help them achieve carbon neutrality in accordance with PAS 2060.

“Fix Auto Edinburgh West have, over their many years in business, always had a reputation as a responsible and reputable repairer.  By formalising this commitment to becoming carbon neutral, they will be actively reducing their emissions year-on-year as well as offsetting any outstanding emissions. We look forward to helping them on their ongoing environmental journey.”
