Corporate Social Responsibility Report 2019 | Cushman & Wakefield

Reducing Single-Use Items in the UK Our Cushman & Wakefield operations in the UK have undertaken several initiatives within the last year to reduce office waste. In 2018, we partnered with CupClub a returnable packing service for drinks aimed at eliminating single-use cups, to pilot the service at our Old Broad Street office. CupClub was introduced to our Portman Square Office in 2019, with all other Cushman & Wakefield offices in the UK switching to ceramic cups. This has contributed to achieving a 70% recycling rate across our UK offices in 2019. Our Old Broad Street, Portman Square and King William Street offices have successfully eliminated all single-use plastic cups and utensils, and send zero waste to landfills. Both Old Broad Street and King William Street offices recently received a Platinum Clean City Award from the City of London Corporation. This award recognizes businesses in the city who have demonstrated best practices in environmental management at their offices, with a focus on eliminating single-use items. This award is a notable achievement and highlights our ongoing commitment to becoming more sustainable as a business. At a time of a global climate emergency it’s important that Cushman &Wakefield demonstrates leadership on reducing our own environmental impact. This award is testimony to the hard work teammembers across the firm are putting into reducing this impact.
