Copart commits to new green offices

Copart UK has opened a new eco-friendly office building in Bristol as part of its ongoing Plan-Net-Zero sustainability commitment.

As part of a programme to upgrade and replace offices at their nationwide Operation Centres, which span over 400 acres and enable the storage of over 100k vehicles at any one time, this new environmentally friendly office building in Bristol will now be a blueprint for the company’s future network of Copart Super Centres.

The bespoke new office building offers strong green credentials. State of the art insulation, low energy LED lighting throughout, and onsite waste treatment facilities to filter and clean water will all contribute towards a sustainable and environmentally friendly office.

The new office forms part of the major expansion plans currently underway at Copart’s Bristol Operation Centre, with this location set to become a 63-acre ‘Super Centre’ for the South West by the end of the year.

Works underway include areas for vehicles that require specialist handling, like EV’s, and contingency land in the event of catastrophes where Copart’s expert surge management services are required by their insurance customers.

Jane Pocock, managing director of Copart UK & Ireland, said: “As partner of choice for most major insurers, operating in the most responsible way is always top of Copart’s agenda. We are delighted to announce the official opening of our new eco-friendly office in Bristol, as the first of many infrastructure upgrades to come under our sustainability refurbishment programme and a major element of our Plan-Net-Zero commitment towards a greener future.”
