At Summerland Bank, we’re not just about banking; we’re about contributing to a better world, one action at a time. As a proud B Corp, we are driven to advocate for positive, lasting change, while protecting the future of our planet and community.
One of the ways we commit to this is our use of 100% renewable energy to power our buildings. From branches to our bustling head office, we’ve made the switch and we’d love to inspire other planet-conscious businesses to join us!
Beyond our choice of energy source, we’re finding small, impactful ways to reduce what we use. Smart hot water systems and energy-efficient lighting are now hard wired into our buildings and we now have a NABERS rating of 4.5 for energy efficiency. Now that’s proof that we’re in this for the long haul.
Our commitment to reducing our impact also extends to the materials we choose. Recyclable carpets, low volatile organic compounds (VOC) emissions, and the highest standard emissions for building materials (E0) certified board materials—these aren’t buzzwords; they’re our promise. Because every choice matters and we’re weaving sustainability into everything we do.
Whether you’re a customer, a business, or simply someone who cares, your actions ripple. Let’s work together to keep the momentum going and do our bit for the planet. Because our small, individual actions can combine to create big, lasting change.
