Sustainability matters
Sustainability has always been an important part of our DNA at
Grundfos and much focus and effort has been directed at ensuring that
every contributory factor comes under scrutiny. Two recent tangible
examples of this are, a partnership with the Danish Refugee Council to
secure access to water and sanitation in some of the world’s largest refugee
communities, and the second would be the way Grundfos is delivering water in
an urban settlement in Nairobi in a unique and innovative way.
Another clear indicator of commitment is the recently updated Grundfos
Code of Conduct - that now includes an even stronger commitment to
upholding human rights and clearly outlines anti-corruption initiatives - as
well as showing how we are continuing with our efforts within the area of
social responsibility. This for instance is exemplified by an initiative in Mexico,
where our production company plays a key part in getting former criminals
back on track through employment.
Other on-going and successful initiatives can be found in our commitment
to reducing our environmental impact. We have cut CO2 emission by 7.2%, our
water consumption by 5% and our energy use by 2% in 2016.

Fire Safety with Crittall Fabrications
Architects and designers
planning a fire escape route
within their buildings can
now specify Crittall
Fabrications glazed partitions and
doorsets. As the use of such glazed
partitioning to transform the
interiors of both new build and
refurbished properties gains in
popularity, in commercial, retail,
hotel and educational
establishments in both the UK and
the US, Crittall Fabrications offers
the ideal solution.
Its extensive range of steel fire
rated glazed doorsets, flush fitting
steel fire rated doors, and fire rated
steel glazed partition walling
provides a winning blend of
elegance and peace of mind. All the
company’s glazed partitioning
products comply fully with the
appropriate BS and EN standards.
As accredited manufacturers
Crittall Fabrications can assist the
creation of fire route plans by
supporting design ratification,
technical information, test
certification and documentation.
Clients may choose supply-only, or a
full design and installation service
which is offered through The Crittall
Group
Fire rated steel doorsets and steel
glazed partitioning can be supplied
as single or double-leaf doorsets,
with a range of latches or handles,
with sliding doors, a break-in/breakout
emergency function and with
fire ratings that range from 30 to
120 minutes integrity or 30 to 60
minutes integrity and insulation.
All Crittall Fabrication
fenestration and doorsets are known
for their combination of elegance
and toughness thanks to the slim
profile and inherent strength of steel
components. To this is added the
factory-applied powder coating that
provides an extremely hard-wearing,
highly durable, maintenance-free
finish.
The doorsets and partitioning
compliments all other product
ranges within the Crittall group of
companies so they blend
consistently and aesthetically with
the choice of external glazing.
