Williams’ embodied carbon calculations for core products

Embodied carbon figures are rapidly gaining importance as consultants, designers, and operators seek to comply with their environmental aspirations and obligations. Having a figure to encapsulate the embodied carbon in an appliance allows the specifier to select the most appropriate one for the project. Williams Refrigeration quickly responded to this demand and has now published embodied carbon calculations for all its core products.  The company is using the CIBSE TM65 mid-level calculation method for the figures, which Greener Energy Futures has independently verified. 

“Talking to our business partners and end-user customers, we realised early on that embodied carbon figures are set to become a ‘must-have’ for foodservice equipment suppliers,” says Malcolm Harling, sales and marketing director at Williams Refrigeration.  “The engineering team, supported by our environmental consultants, have been working very hard to collate the data required to compute them as quickly and accurately as possible.  Their success means we are amongst the first equipment manufacturers to have our calculations produced, third-party verified and available within our Revit symbols in Specifi.

“There’s no doubt that embodied carbon figures will help our industry become more sustainable as foodservice operators, manufacturers, consultants, designers and dealers work together to deliver carbon net zero.”  

The Williams’ core products with embodied carbon figures include a selection of Jade counters and cabinets, blast chillers, Chef’s Drawers, Onyx prep stations, UBCs (Under Broiler Counters), and the undercounter Amber and Aztra cabinets.   “These are our most popular models,” says Harling, “the team is working on having figures for all our product families in the near future.”  

Data sheets with the embodied carbon figures will be available via Specifi or direct from Williams.
