Celebrating 30 years of Stowood

1992-2022: Stowood is celebrating 30 years since our founding and our first delivery of sleep equipment to a sleep and respiratory unit.

Since our founding we have grown significantly, to become the leader in sleep diagnostics in the UK and Ireland, plus sell Visi-Download oximetry and capnography download software all over the globe.

 

Race to Net Zero:

Stowood aims to get to net zero as soon as possible, for the sake of the planet and all our customers who inhabit it.

As part of that:

  • Stowood has removed all oil and gas boilers from our offices, and replaced them with heat pumps

  • Stowood tech support can be done remotely via screen share since 2015, removing the need for car journeys
  • Stowood tech support have opened video sharing via WhatsApp, to demonstrate any issues via institution Wifi, reducing the need for car journeys
  • Stowood is paperless, reducing paper waste and allowing staff to work from home where possible, reducing the need for car journeys
  • Stowood has a Cycle to Work scheme to subsidise cycle purchases, reducing the need for car journeys
  • Shipment packaging is reused, as reusing is better than reprocessing
  • More than a third of Stowood’s team’s vehicles are charged via plug in electricity, reducing oil use and emissions
