Environmental Policy
Taking responsibility for our impact on the environment is a key objective for Addison Lee.
This is reflected in the ISO 14001 certification awarded to Addison Lee for environmental management across our entire operation.
We have established an ever-improving emissions and waste reduction programme, which has brought real results.
Addison Lee has cut its emissions per journey every year since 2002 and we are working on a further 6% year-on-year reduction.
The mainstay of our 2,000-strong minicab fleet is the Volkswagen Sharan. The performance of the Sharan already exceeds the 2009 Euro 5 standards for carbon.
Our chauffeur-driven VIP cars, the Mercedes E and S Class, have both been recognised for their environmental achievements. The Mercedes S class is the first car in the world to be awarded an environmental certificate and its emissions are 85% lower than the current EU 4 limits. The new Mercedes E class has been awarded World Green Car of the Year at the World Car of the Year Awards 2007.
Addison Lee recycles over 97% of its waste and we are currently working to improve these figures with a waste management and recycling company.
