Waste Management Strategies and the Circular Economy: A Synergistic Approach to Energy Efficiency in Building Services.
The challenges of waste management and energy efficiency are pressing concerns in today’s world. As the global population continues to grow
Adapting Old Commercial Buildings for Net Zero A Path to Compliance and Sustainability.
As the urgency to address climate change grows, the need for transitioning to net-zero emissions becomes increasingly crucial. While new buildings can be designed with sustainability in mind, there is a significant challenge in retrofitting existing commercial buildings to meet new regulations and achieve net-zero targets by 2030. However, with strategic adaptations, these old structures can be transformed into energy-efficient, environmentally friendly spaces.
Paul Irving, Managing Director at MS Maintenance Solutions Ltd explores several key steps to adapt processes and systems in old commercial buildings, enabling them to align with new regulations and contribute to a sustainable future.
Plastic Free July
At MS, we understand that sustainable change is a collective effort. We firmly believe in our responsibility to champion eco-friendly practices and reduce the use of single-use plastics at our Head Office and at our Client sites. With this in mind, we have collaborated with our clients to address their plastic consumption.

8 Old Jewry Case Study
MS has held a maintenance contract at 8 Old Jewry since March 2018. We attend the site twice a week for planned preventative maintenance and hold a comprehensive reactive callout service.
Utilise your Summer Planned Preventative Maintenance to install a SMART monitoring system.
We are already seeing visible effects on the world with the changing climate, from hotter temperatures, rainfall patterns changing, more extreme weather in general, and the increased risks of fires and floods.
Finding a cost-effective solution to reaching your sustainability goals without breaking the bank. Is it possible?
The hot topic within building services is and will continue to be energy usage reduction, a combined goal to hit net zero and the importance of ESG. However, with these industry demands comes a cost, and working towards a greener future isn’t always a simple task.
Chiller Replacement, Watford Case Study
MS carried out a chiller replacement project in September 2022 as part of an ongoing energy reduction plan.
Following several discussions with the client, they requested Energy saving suggestions to reduce their building’s EPC energy rating to a C.
The Account Manager gave a detailed report on where significant savings could be made. He brought the chiller to their attention, it was no longer running efficiently and had come to the end of it’s lifecycle.
MS’ Carbon Journey so far
MS take great pride in our adopted ‘greener thinking’ processes.
As we continue our carbon journey it has become apparent just how much of an impact we can have on our environment and aim to be carbon neutral by 2025.
Through our continued company awareness, reduction in our fuel usage and compliance with building regulations and energy-saving initiatives we have already significantly reduced our carbon emissions.
