Our Commitment to a Greener Future

Innovating for a Greener Future

We understand that our products and services play a crucial role in managing water resources and preserving the quality of drinking water. We continuously innovate to enhance the environmental performance of our offerings, reducing water waste and promoting the efficient use of resources across all sectors we serve. Our RPZ Valves and other water regulation products are designed to minimise environmental impact while maximising performance and long-term reliability.

Reducing Our Carbon Footprint

Arrow Valves is actively working to reduce its carbon footprint in line with the UK’s goal to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050. We have implemented energy-efficient practices across our operations, from utilising renewable energy sources in our facilities to optimising our manufacturing processes for less waste and lower emissions. Our move to a modern premises in Berkhamsted was a significant step towards minimising energy usage and enhancing the overall sustainability of our operations.

Engaging with the Community

We believe in the power of community to drive sustainable change, which is why Arrow Valves actively engages with local communities and stakeholders to share knowledge and promote best practice. Through the Arrow Academy, we support initiatives that promote environmental education and awareness among engineers, specifiers and the wider water industry. Our charity events and community partnerships reflect our long-standing commitment to social responsibility and environmental stewardship.

Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)

Our strategy aligns with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, particularly in three key areas:

  • Clean Water and Sanitation (SDG 6): Ensuring the availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all people, in all communities.
  • Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure (SDG 9): Building resilient infrastructure, promoting inclusive and sustainable industrialisation, and fostering innovation in water management.
  • Responsible Consumption and Production (SDG 12): Ensuring sustainable consumption and production patterns across our supply chain and product lifecycle.

Looking Ahead

As we continue our journey, Arrow Valves remains committed to proactive compliance with environmental legislation and to playing a meaningful role in shaping a sustainable future for the water industry. We are constantly evaluating and adapting our practices to meet and exceed the evolving sustainability targets set by the UK government, and we welcome collaboration with partners who share those values.

Corporate Social Responsibility and Support for the Armed Forces

Our Commitment to the United Kingdom and Its Defenders

At Arrow Valves Ltd, we take great pride in being a British engineering company that upholds the values of integrity, reliability, and public service.

As part of our Corporate Social Responsibility commitments, Arrow Valves is proud to support the Armed Forces Covenant, affirming our respect and gratitude for those who serve, have served, and for their families. We recognise the unique skills, discipline, and technical expertise that service leavers and reservists bring to the workplace, and we actively welcome applications from members of the Armed Forces community.

Our Role in Supporting Defence Infrastructure
