Why does Keston receive a bottom rating for our Environmental Report category?

Keston’s parent company Groupe Atlantic has a CSR page. The page acknowledges ‘environmental challenges’ and also shares a CSR policy. However, the company does not mention any targets and there is only a small amount of information.

Because of this, Keston receives a bottom rating in this category.

Although Keston does not currently meet the minimum ethical benchmark in the Ethical Boilers sector, The Good Shopping Guide still suggests that it gets in touch to apply for Ethical Accreditation.
