Studio Sustainability Standard

Studio Sustainability Standard

The studio sustainability standard is the world’s first sustainability assessment designed specifically for studio spaces.

By taking part, studios are able to focus and pinpoint key areas within their facility, where they can make improvements to reduce their environmental impact over 6 key areas: Climate, Circularity, Nature, People, Management and Data.

Participating studios receive a bespoke performance report as well as a grade which allows them to benchmark their own progress as well as compare themselves to other studio facilities across the globe. 

2024/45 Insights Report

Data from the Studio Sustainability Standard 2023/24 cohort is out now.

Read the report to learn how 29 studios globally are committing to a more sustainable future.

Insights from this year’s report include:

– Using renewable energy sources doesn’t need to be hard – most participating studios are using 100% renewable energy sources which significantly reduces carbon impacts. Some studios have even been able to install solar panels on their sites to generate their own electricity.
– Studios are making sustainability easier for productions – either by helping them to donate left over set, props and costumes to local organisations or by helping them to upcycle surplus resources that otherwise would have gone to landfill.
– Participating in the Standard helps studios to navigate the path to being more sustainable. Of the 10 studios who participated in year one and two, 8 have improved their score year on year.
