We’re off to a greener start in 2026! 🌱

Being shortlisted for Green Business of the Year at the British Business Awards 2026 is a proud milestone for our team and reflects our ongoing commitment to sustainability. That same commitment has driven the completion of the first phase of our Scope 3 measuring, establishing a clear baseline and identifying where we can reduce emissions.

We’re excited to turn these insights into action and continue building a more sustainable future.

We are proud to have been nominated in three categories at the CeeD (Centre for Engineering, Education and Development) Industry Awards:



• Innovation

• Net Zero Heroes

• Knowledge Exchange



This recognition includes our work developing an AI powered logistics digital twin.



The platform connects operational data from road, rail and warehousing into a single live intelligence view. By linking systems that traditionally operate in silos, it gives planners a real time picture of the network.



Using advanced analytics and AI driven optimisation, the platform helps reduce empty running, improve asset utilisation and support faster data led decisions.



Early prototypes are already delivering measurable impact, including fewer empty journeys, improved operational visibility and better tracking of transport carbon emissions.



Huge shout out to Ibrahim Abdullahi, PhD. & David Jones for their incredible work.

We’re proud to shine a light on two of our apprentices, Matthew and Lee.

They’re learning on the job, getting stuck in on site and in the workshop, and building real careers in engineering with Russell Engineering. Their hard work and attitude make a big difference to our team every day.

Apprenticeships create opportunities, grow confidence and help shape the future of our industry. We’re proud to be part of that journey.

Russell Hillington has wrapped up a Health & Safety Stand Down, with our team stepping away from day-to-day roles to actively engage in safety awareness.

From incident reporting to drug and alcohol awareness, it was all about learning by doing! Including time in the warehouse and testing out beer goggles to reinforce safe thinking at work.

Thanks to everyone involved, safety is always a team effort 🦺

At Russell Group, sustainability is embedded in how we support our customers’ supply chains. Our Environmental Policy and Sustainability Strategy set out clear actions to reduce Co2 emissions and support shared sustainability goals.
