Scientific and technical testimonials

Testimonial for The National Physical laboratory

We are fortunate to be situated in the sumptuous ground of Bushy Park, next to Hampton Court and near to Heathrow Airport, with excellent transport links around the country. As one of the UK’s leading science and technology research facilities we provide business accommodation at our Knowledge and Innovation Centre with access to NPL’s expertise, laboratories and capital equipment. At NPL we are committed to supporting the local community and we are proud that this facility is available to support local businesses to develop and grow at an affordable pace. In addition, well over 10% of our 650 staff become involved in corporate social responsibility and educational outreach activities each year.

Testimonial for Proper Oils

Proper Oils, based in Twickenham, started operations in April 2007 and collects used cooking oil from caterers, refines it into the highest quality biodiesel fuel, and supplies it to local organisations.

Sustainability is at the heart of what we do. We want to prove that refining the waste cooking oil into biodiesel locally is better – by reducing the pollution and congestion when collecting; by providing local jobs; by keeping the money circulating with the local community; and by minimising our environmental footprint. We are also the proud winners of the Richmond Green Business of The Year Award!

Stephen Hurton, MD, Proper Oils
