Abacus Flooring Solutions founder and managing director Nick Megson has expressed his pride at winning the 2021 Environmental Impact Award at the Leicestershire Business Awards.

The Environmental Impact Award is bestowed upon the organisation which has put environmental sustainability at the core of its business.

As the winning business, Abacus Flooring Solution was able to demonstrate a measurable commitment to making a positive impact on the environment.

The Abacus team beat off competition from fellow nominees Go Travel Solutions, Michael Smith Switchgear and Pacwolf to clinch the prize.

 

Making an Environmental Impact

Company founder Nick researched and designed a floor screed that can be used in the resin flooring industry, which, instead of using quarried aggregate, is made from recycled white plastics.

This can include elements like toilet seats and light switches to create an epoxy self-smoothing screen that works extremely effectively.

The industry the world over uses silicone aggregates, but Abacus wanted to do things a little differently, so we developed this recycled solution instead.

Abacus were named winners of the category at a glittering awards ceremony held at Leicester Tigers Rugby Club on 3 December.

Reflecting on his firm’s success, Nick said: “This is a very proud moment for our business.”

“When I decided to design a floor screed that was environmentally friendly, I never imagined we would be awarded the prestigious Environmental Impact Award.

“Using white plastics otherwise destined for landfill, we were able to form a screed, which we think has the potential to change the industry.

“This is a world first innovation and a fantastic honour to receive, so I’m quite chuffed!”

The Awards were organised by the East Midlands Chamber of Commerce.

As a regional winner, Abacus will now compete for the top prizes at the National British Chamber of Commerce Awards.
