UKFast's accreditations show our commitment to continuous business improvement through our people, practices and technology in the hosting world.
Reducing our environmental impact is a key priority. Therefore we are very proud to have achieved PAS 2060 certification - making us the 1st certified carbon neutral hosting company in the UK.
The Publicly Available Specification (PAS) 2060 for the demonstration of carbon neutrality was published in June 2010 by The British Standards Institution (BSI.) PAS 2060 exists to help businesses reduce their greenhouse gas emissions, meet their environmental objectives and validate their carbon neutrality statements.
Being certified to this standard demonstrates how we have offset all CO2 emissions from head office, data centre operations, and the energy used by commuters. As the first certified 100% carbon neutral hosting company, all existing and new client services are also entirely carbon neutral.
The accreditation defines carbon neutrality as a "condition in which there is no net increase in the global emission of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere as a result of the greenhouse gas emissions associated with the subject." Read more about carbon neutral hosting
We provide secure web hosting to clients worldwide, offering hosting services certified to the ISO 27001:2008 standard - ensuring the security of your own, and your customer's, data.
Ensuring information security can be a complicated issue, but one that all businesses involved in storing, processing or transmitting data must address. We've had to prove that our daily procedures allow us to store data, accessibly but safely. We've shown that our actions as a business display a level of security that reduces the risk of breaches in the confidentiality, integrity or availability of data to a minimum.
We've proved that we take information security incredibly seriously by achieving ISO27001:2008 certification across all of our business operations.
We have implemented an internal Quality Management System (QMS) which is certified to ISO9001:2008. The QMS is continually maintained and improved to ensure that we meet, if not exceed, the expectations of our clients.

The Standard requires merchants and member service providers (MSPs) who store, process or transmit cardholder data to:
