We believe that without certifications a lot of bold claims can become marketing ploys. We wanted to give ourselves, our team and our customers confidence that what we say is true. We also wanted to raise the bar within our industry, our country and the globe. We chose Pangolin to help us through this process. Being a fellow B Corp was a big tick of approval to start off with. Pangolin exceeded our expectations in terms of communication, adaptability, value, quality as well as speed.
Without them this process would have taken us much longer. We have learned a lot through this process about how we can improve in the future by having granular visibility into our carbon footprint.

Best practice and proudly navigating leading companies across various fields to net zero – in a nutshell, that’s why it was a simple choice to partner with Pangolin Associates to offset our carbon emissions and achieve Climate Active recognition and accreditation. Highly professional and the leaders in their field, to help guide a professional motorsport team, the first to achieve international and national accreditations for carbon neutrality outside of Europe, was an absolute pleasure and highlighted their depth, capabilities and capacity to understand the nature of our business, different to most, and help us reach these incredible milestones successfully. They’re just as proud as we are, and that really says it all.

Becoming carbon neutral has been aspirational goals for the past 8 years and our school has struggled with measuring and reducing our emissions to achieve Carbon Neutral status. Working with Pangolin Associates has enabled us to bring together all our individual projects we have implemented as part of our broader goal and measure their contribution.
The expertise and guidance provided has been so valuable for our staff and students and through the support of Pangolin Associates our aspirations have become a reality and we have finally achieved our goal. We know maintaining our accreditation will be an ongoing challenge but we are confident that we can sustain this as we have highly qualified and professional coaching through Pangolin to assist us and support this important agenda in our school community. We could not have achieved this without the professional expertise of this organisation.
We are very proud to be the first school in Queensland to be accredited as Carbon Neutral and the only secondary educational institution in Australia to be accredited. Thank you, Pangolin for helping us achieve this.

Ross Hill has become the first certified carbon neutral winery in Australia. This has been achieved by the hard work and experience from the team at Pangolin Associates. To become carbon neutral has been a goal for the Robson Family for a long time, our philosophy is to basically have as small a footprint on the earth as possible. With a 38KW solar panel and then energy reduction strategies we have been able to achieve our goal. It would not have been possible with out Pangolin who have been very passionate and diligent in their advice and also steering us through the regulations of becoming carbon neutral.
