As environmental responsibility becomes a core focus for modern businesses, green auctions are emerging as a powerful way to reduce waste, conserve resources and promote the circular economy. At JPS Chartered Surveyors, our work in green auctions is at the heart of this movement.
We specialise in sustainable asset disposal – auctioning surplus and pre owned industrial assets to help businesses save money and the planet. Through our environmentally conscious approach, we proudly support the circular economy and promote the reuse of valuable resources.
Each year, we facilitate hundreds of green auctions for businesses across the UK. Our online auction platform allows us to connect unused assets with buyers who can repurpose them – extending their lifecycle and preventing unnecessary waste.
A notable recent example is our auction of a complete manufacturer, distiller, rectifier and bottling plant of beverages and liquids. Rather than being scrapped, this facility is being reused, giving the equipment a new purpose and avoiding the environmental cost of manufacturing replacements.
All our auctions are conducted online – a deliberate choice to minimise environmental impact. By eliminating the need for printed materials and in-person attendance, we reduce emissions and paper waste. This model not only offers greater convenience for our clients, but also aligns with our mission to offer eco-friendly asset management solutions.
Where feasible, we also conduct on-site auctions to minimise the need for transporting goods. This approach helps reduce fuel usage and lowers the carbon footprint associated with logistics and delivery.
Our business is a working example of how circular economy auctions benefit the environment. Instead of disposing of surplus assets or buying new equipment, businesses can now tap into our sustainable network of buyers and sellers.
We embrace the four core principles of sustainability:
This not only conserves natural resources but also supports sustainable business practices in auctions.
We work with a broad range of environmentally aware buyers, including:

These buyers recognise the value of used machinery and assets for sale, not just financially, but ecologically too.
