Looking to the future

Total Global Steel was formed in 1999, and since its inception has grown to become one of the UK's foremost independant Structural Steel Traders specialising in physical metal trading, futures and hedging, online trading and LME brokerage. 

Renewable Energy Trading

Global Carbon was launched as the sister company of Total Global Steel.  Originally specialising in physical metal trading, futures and hedging, online trading and LME brokerage, Total Global Steel has expanded its expertise to cover the energy market. This division, TGS carbon, is dedicated to emissions reductions and offers Carbon Offsetting to everyone, from international businesses and organisations to individual consumers.

With the carbon market rapidly developing we are now seeing high quality standards emerging.  Environmental issues are at the forefront of development. TGS Global Carbon is dedicated to taking responsibility for reducing the world's CO2 emissions. We have taken steps to minimise our own carbon foot print as well as enabling others to significantly reduce theirs. Working with businesses of all sizes, from small and medium enterprises to large corporates, we take time and care to identify and develop new opportunities for carbon offsetting.

In response to demand for more quality assurance in the carbon market the group made the move to pledge an Agreement with the Gold Standard Foundation.  The Gold Standard is a premium-quality brand in the carbon market.  The Gold Standard brand distinguishes a bench mark in any policy climate.   The group seeks to build brand equity and create sustainable value; with the launch of our offset site globalcarbon.co.uk we feel we are best able to do this through the Gold Standard.  Originating and sourcing our own high quality projects, our teams operates from a variety of locations around the world.  CEO Martin Lonergan comments ‘’we’ve built up a lot of expertise, with Environmental challenges continual evolving we see opportunities for companies to innovate and lead.  It is not a case of climate change getting worse; it’s a case of continual development.’  The group is in the process of launching a low carbon technology project, which will also improve the quality of life for the community involved.  We are all very excited to see this launch.
