Embracing Renewable Energy
Back in 2015 Hoben International, with a desire to reduce their carbon footprint and in-line with company policy, applied for planning permission to install one wind turbine on their Brassington site.
Unfortunately, in 2016 the original application was refused due to an adjustment in government legislation that sought to reduce the amount of onshore wind farms in the UK.
Now in 2023, in-line with a new government driven initiative to make UK companies ‘greener’, Hoben International will be submitting a new proposal for the installation of two wind turbines alongside a solar panel scheme, to move the facility towards their target of a zero carbon footprint.

Our vision is to become carbon neutral by being self-sufficient, generating our own energy on site to use in our manufacturing
processes.
Hoben International takes great pride in their local community with 90% of their 60 person workforce residing in the surrounding area.
