Welcome to Heriot-Watt's WARPit page.
WARPit is a resources re-use tool which allows us to reduce our environmental impact and carbon footprint by promoting sustainable behaviour within the University (and the wider Public Sector which will roll out in due course).
The aim is that where possible, we can gain both potential environmental and financial benefits from the re-use and re-deployment of resources within the organisation, such as re-using furniture from other areas, reducing the amount of items being disposed of in skips etc and avoiding always having to buy new items.
If items are not claimed internally within HWU for re-use, we can always open up our site and offer items free of charge to the wider Public Sector and it also gives us the opportunity to demonstrate our corporate social responsibility by supporting schools and charities who also qualify for access.
