This year Morgan joined the British Ceramic Confederation’s voluntary member initiative to drive forward the decarbonisation of the UK ceramics sector. The scheme will promote collaborative working and learning opportunities across the breadth of the UK ceramics industry, allowing Morgan to share and implement “here and now” changes for the net zero transition. This opportunity supports our commitment to achieve significant emissions reductions by 2030. The initiative is also a great way for us to support the UK ceramics community, through mentoring of SME members to achieve their own ESG targets. Learn more about our environmental goals below.

Our Ranipet team have taken a great step forward in reducing their plastic waste; eliminating polybags from their ceramic blanket packaging in favour of a single woven sack. Following a concentrated testing period, the team concluded that eliminating the plastic bag would have no impact on the protection of the product. Excellent work by the team, reducing plastics and time to package the product too; a double win!

As part of our focus on safety this November, we are talking about our safety commitments. Today we want to share with you, why our commitment to 'taking 5 for safety and stopping for danger’ is important to us? We show we care by working safely and sticking to the rules. We also know that looking out for hazards and keeping our workplace safe is also an important part of showing we care. When you work in the same place every day, it’s easy to overlook some hazards. At Morgan a 'Take 5' assessment helps us focus on the risks involved before starting a task, and can also be used as a safety check if things change.

Our strategy is to build distinctive capabilities in customer focus, application engineering and materials science. Our partnership with the University of Manchester National Graphene Institute, enables us to do just that. At the National Graphene Institute, our main focus is around understanding interfacial interactions between different components of a composite, enabling modification to properties through this understanding. We are focused on carbon related technology developments using new materials, such as graphene. We are also researching new carbon advances for both our Electrical Carbon and Seals and Bearings businesses. Our Senior Materials Scientist Darren commented: "As a member of the Centre of Excellence embedded at the University of Manchester, I am involved in exciting cutting edge technology on a daily basis, whilst utilising this in real world applications throughout Morgan."
