Environment
As
an ISO14001 accredited company, PBR's products are designed with
the environment in mind.
The
following environmental objectives underpin PBR's product development;
- Incorporating light weight materials to improve fuel efficiency
- Minimising the number of working components to improve product
life
- Establishing production processes that eliminate waste
The introduction of
PBR brake-by-wire systems will see further improvements in fuel
economy, reduced parts and the ultimate elimination of brake fluid.
PBR's constant search
for innovative solutions has realised significant successes for
the environment. The introduction of specialist production equipment
has reduced grinding dust, gas usage, effluent, energy and the release
of many tonnes of CO2.
PBR has taken a leadership
role in the development of environmental initiatives within the
automotive supplier community by assisting suppliers to achieve
ISO14001 accreditation.
PBR is a signatory to many
of the key industry and government environmental initiatives including;
the Greenhouse Challenge Co-operative and Greenfleet.
