Environmental Report FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2012 Introduction In 2012, we were awarded Retro Expo’s Outstanding Achievement Award in recognition of the positioning work we have done to ensure we take advantage of the low carbon construction economy. We have set targets for 2020 and have invested to improve our analysis of our supply chain carbon opportunities and liabilities. The environmental impact of all group activities is included in this report. Process improvements and outside influences Management systems The Group’s certified Environmental Management System now covers BSS and PTS, but does not yet fully cover Toolstation or businesses not wholly owned by the Group. The strategic management of our environmental approach was improved in 2012 by adopting key environmental metrics and targets out to 2020. We regard responsible operations as both important and financially prudent. Our zero waste to landfill ambition has been transposed to a 2017 target. By 2020, we expect to reduce our carbon dioxide intensity by 48%. The effect of the law What we do, and how we do it, is partially a response to regulatory drivers. We estimate that it costs us £2.2 million in direct fees to comply with current environmental regulations. We have increased our direct advocacy and interest in industry bodies like the Construction Products Association (CPA), British Retail Consortium (BRC) and the Green Building Council (GBC) so we can help achieve better regulation. Opportunities from environmental regulation such as The Green Deal, which officially launched on January 28 2013, have yet to materialise – however, we expect this to build gradually as consumers become more informed. Travis Perkins and our Green Deal Provider Partner, Toriga, were among the first organisations to create an approved Green Deal Plan. The Travis Perkins Toriga Green Deal proposition will allow customers to gain access to this growing market opportunity as it develops over the coming years. The effect of stakeholder views In 2012, excluding regular support for our contractor customers tendering activities and routine dialogue with WWF, CPA, BRC, GBC or our own environmental advisory bodies, we spoke to approximately 200 people or organisations about our environmental approach. Regrettably, 28 of these (30 in 2011) were complaints. We recognise that from time to time conflicts can arise with neighbours, or we will have supplied materials customers regard as lacking environmental credentials. On each occasion we seek to listen, react and agree changes where possible. Encouragingly, we had a positive engagement with investors in 2012 about our environmental approach and this has improved the level of disclosure in this report. Wherever possible, we now include absolute levels of emissions or consumption and an indicator stating the level of measured versus estimated data. Our strategic priorities, themes and objectives are formally reviewed regularly against solicited or unsolicited commentary we receive about our environmental approach along with the feedback from our Non Executive Environmental Advisory Panel. We believe this makes our approach more effective and closer to stakeholder expectations. What we report For the 2013 calendar year we will report under the proposed Green House Gas mandatory reporting rules and restate comparatives to ensure consistency. For 2012 data we reviewed the calculations of our metrics, which are produced by combining measured, estimated and extrapolated data, but did not materially change them. We have increased our content of environmental information on the Web and in other publications and have continued to have this report and its contents verified by Lloyds Register of Quality Assurance. A copy of the verification statement is downloadable from the Travis Perkins plc. environment web pages. Buying Responsibly Timber and timber products In 2012, we estimate that 90% by value of the timber and timber products purchased by the Group was from certified well managed or controlled forests. Over 85% of the timber data comes from our central sales records, with the remaining estimated. All centrally purchased major timber product groups are either fully certified or a plan for full certification is underway. By Q2 of 2013, all materials we import Wickes Call Centre Brackmills 46
