Backing BEAMA’s “Let’s Get PED Right” campaign
Spencer Yates2026-07-06T11:59:11+00:00As a proud member of BEAMA, Proteus Switchgear are supporting the “Let’s Get PED Right” campaign, helping to shape a Product Environmental Data (PED) framework that works for both manufacturers and customers alike.
As demand for environmental information continues to grow across the construction and electrical industries, having a consistent approach to Product Environmental Data is becoming increasingly important. Reliable, comparable data will help customers make informed decisions while supporting the UK’s wider sustainability ambitions. However, for this to succeed, the framework must be practical, proportionate and achievable for businesses of every size.
The BEAMA campaign recognises the value of Product Environmental Data but also highlights the need to get the foundations right from the very beginning. A clear, standardised approach will help build confidence in environmental data, enable fair and meaningful comparisons between products, and avoid creating unnecessary complexity, duplication or additional costs for manufacturers.
As a British manufacturer, we understand the importance of providing customers with trustworthy environmental information, while ensuring new requirements remain realistic for businesses investing in British manufacturing, innovation and product development.
By supporting BEAMA’s campaign, we’re joining manufacturers from across the electrical industry in calling for a framework that delivers genuine value without placing unnecessary administrative or financial burdens on companies.
Let’s get PED right.
