CHEP used a local South African company, MLT Drives, to manufacture and install the solar system and all materials used were locally manufactured in South Africa, further supporting the local economy. CHEP strongly advocates sustainable ways of doing business and, as VP Hermann Haupt explains, the donation of a state-of-the-art solar system ties in with their goals of going beyond ‘zero impact’, “Our mission is to positively impact the communities in which we operate. At the same time, we’re delighted to help such a wonderful school become more sustainable and help transform the lives of the students they serve.”
