At FJS Plant Ltd, we’re committed to making sustainability a part of everything we do. We aim to run our business in a way that’s environmentally responsible, socially fair, and economically sound – for the benefit of our staff, customers, and the wider community.
Caring for the environment is central to how we operate. We’re working towards Zero Waste and Zero Carbon across our service and support operations. We take the following steps to minimise our environmental impact:
We recycle all materials we can – including cardboard, timber packaging, used oil, batteries, metals, and ink cartridges. Our cleaning bays use rainwater harvested on-site, and oil residues are captured using interceptors to prevent contamination.
Our service fleet is powered by HVO (Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil), which significantly reduces carbon emissions. All company vehicles use AdBlue and meet Stage V emissions standards.
We maintain natural hedgerows and green boundaries at our depots in Naas and Kilkenny to support local wildlife and biodiversity.
We believe in supporting people – both within our business and in the communities we operate in. Our approach includes:
We create employment in the local area by hiring staff and technicians from the surrounding communities.
We actively support local initiatives and events, helping build strong ties within our communities.
We follow all Irish and EU labour laws and are committed to providing a safe, inclusive, and equal workplace for everyone.
We work with suppliers and partners who share our values when it comes to sustainability.
We work with manufacturers like Hyundai, Kubota and Thwaites, who invest in electric and low-emission machinery, helping us and our customers lower our environmental impact.
We supply a range of equipment that runs on electric or HVO, offering more sustainable options for our clients.
We run a paper-light office using digital tools for accounting, service reporting and fleet tracking – helping to cut down waste and improve efficiency.
Sustainability isn’t a box we tick – it’s something we’re always working on. We’re constantly reviewing our environmental performance, improving our processes, and setting new goals to do better for the planet and the people around us.
We’re proud of what we’ve achieved so far, and we’re committed to going further.
