Funding Success Story - Glenhaze
We were delighted to support packaging specialists Glehaze in their bid to reduce their environmental impact and become net zero. The Bathgate-based firm were recently awarded a grant towards a low-carbon, energy-efficient LED project. This support has enabled their factory to run more efficiently and has helped the business reduce its carbon footprint.
