How we measure our impact
We recognise that a sustainable future requires an ongoing evolution of our approach, a commitment to constant improvement, and a steadfast dedication to understanding and mitigating our impact. Our sustainability journey transcends the traditional boundaries, reaching beyond the realms of manufacturing and product usage.
Reducing our carbon footprint
Billi proudly stands as a testament to sustainability, having undergone rigorous assessment and certification through Global GreenTag’s LCARate™ programme. Certified by Global GreenTag, our water-cooled products carry a lower carbon footprint that is known and measurable.
Empowerment and good governance
Our employees are essential contributors to the realisation of our sustainability goals. Our commitment goes beyond products and processes; it extends to a workplace culture that values and empowers our team members. Billi provides a supportive environment where our employees are encouraged to embrace and promote sustainable practices in both their professional and personal lives.
Wellbeing
Enhancing the wellbeing of end-users is ingrained in our DNA. We are members of the International WELL Building Institute, which is a testament to our dedication to setting new standards in creating environments that prioritise health and wellbeing.
Certification
Unwavering commitment to surpassing the standards of being just fit for purpose. Billi has successfully achieved certifications that not only validate our products’ performance but also highlight our contributions to broader sustainability goals.
Energy-saving
Billi’s range of products stands out for their unique capability of converting waste heat into a valuable source of heating energy. By harnessing waste heat and turning it into a usable energy source, our water filtration systems exemplify a commitment to saving energy and environmental responsibility.
Waste reduction
We recognise the urgent need to minimise all forms of waste, therefore we have strategic partnerships within the industry. These collaborations are designed to ensure the recycling of parts and re-use of materials wherever possible. We have also introduced packaging solutions that have incorporated recycled materials, such as tank insulation.

Sustainable technologies
Our dual technology combines the energy efficiency and heat transfer benefits of water cooling with the water-efficient heat exchange technology. Water, being a more effective conductor of heat than air, ensures that our systems run at consistent and efficient operating temperatures, saving on energy costs and reducing the carbon footprint.
Our water-cooled systems do not require any fans, cross ventilation, clearance tolerances, or joinery cut-outs to keep the system cool. Our heat exchange technology repurposes waste heat within the system to generate usable heating energy, contributing to Billi UK’s Net-Zero and Sustainable Development Goals.
