Navigating the EII Scheme: A Challenge for Eternis

Before partnering with Bonham & Brook, Eternis faced a significant challenge: determining their eligibility for the Energy Intensive Industries (EII) Exemption and Compensation Scheme. The application process seemed daunting, and with limited internal resources, they assumed they wouldn’t qualify for financial relief.

Navigating the EII Scheme: A Challenge for Eternis

“We initially assumed we wouldn’t qualify, but Bonham & Brook quickly proved otherwise.”

– Andrew Burke, Global Product Manager, Eternis

Despite their initial doubts, Eternis decided to engage Bonham & Brook to explore their options. What followed was a transformative experience that not only secured them funding but also reshaped their approach to energy tax opportunities.

Bonham & Brook’s Proactive Approach

From the outset, the Bonham & Brook team took full ownership of the process. Rather than relying on surface-level assessments, we conducted a deep dive into Eternis’ energy consumption, operational structure, and regulatory standing. Our expertise allowed us to pinpoint opportunities that had previously been overlooked.

“Their team took charge, identifying and securing opportunities beyond our expectations.”

Through meticulous research and strategic application management, we not only established Eternis’ eligibility but also ensured they received the maximum relief available under the EII scheme. The results far exceeded their expectations, unlocking financial benefits they hadn’t anticipated.

Persistence That Paid Off

One of the key differentiators for Eternis was Bonham & Brook’s unwavering persistence. We stayed ahead of government updates, continuously tracking new opportunities and regulatory changes that could impact their eligibility. The proactive approach of the Bonham & Brook team ensured that no stone was left unturned.

“What stood out most was their tenacity. They kept pushing, staying on top of new opportunities and government updates, ensuring we didn’t miss out on anything.” –

The Eternis team particularly valued our ability to handle the complexities of the claim with minimal time commitment on their part. This allowed them to focus on their core business operations while we worked tirelessly behind the scenes to maximise their claim.

Why Eternis Recommends Bonham & Brook

Reflecting on the experience, Eternis shared how Bonham & Brook’s expertise, tenacity, and strategic approach made all the difference. Initially sceptical about their eligibility, they now encourage other businesses to explore their options, emphasising that there is little to lose but so much to gain.

For businesses navigating the complexities of energy tax relief, Eternis’ experience serves as a testament to the value of having a dedicated partner like Bonham & Brook. Our ability to identify opportunities, manage the entire claims process, and secure unexpected funding has positioned us as a trusted advisor in this space.

“If you’re on the fence about working with Bonham & Brook, we can confidently say there’s little to lose and so much to gain. Their dedication and proactive approach made all the difference, and the final results far exceeded our expectations.”

Andrew Burke, Global Product Manager, Eternis

Lanxess Chemicals

A Missed Opportunity Turned Game-Changer

When LXS Chemicals first engaged with Bonham & Brook, they had little awareness of how the EII Exemption could impact their bottom line. The potential savings were unknown, unquantifiable, and lacked tangible proof of success. Without clear evidence that the initiative would yield results, it was not an immediate priority.

However, taking the leap proved to be a game-changer.

Delivering Tangible Results

The results were undeniable. The implementation of the EII scheme delivered substantial savings, seven figures annually, not just within LXS Chemicals’ business unit but also across the broader KPI savings framework.

Initially, the company hesitated due to the untested nature of the service within their organisation. Could this initiative truly deliver? Would the effort lead to tangible results? These concerns were valid, yet they were quickly put to rest as the process unfolded.

What Made the Difference?

One of the standout aspects of working with Bonham & Brook was their professionalism and collaborative approach. From the outset, their expertise was evident, and their structured execution reassured the team at LXS Chemicals.

Unlike other consultancies that often promise much but deliver little, Bonham & Brook stood out by providing a seamless experience with clear, data-backed strategies.

Exceeding Expectations

Looking back, the decision to move forward with Bonham & Brook was driven by a mix of intuition and expertise. From the very first conversation, it was clear that their team had the knowledge and approach necessary to drive meaningful results.

The most pleasant surprise? The sheer scale of savings achieved. The initiative significantly impacted the company’s bottom line, and even more exciting, it allowed for a closer working relationship with Bonham & Brook, looking at other opportunities to further reduced costs through Bonham & Brook’s services.

Would LXS Chemicals Recommend Bonham & Brook?

Absolutely. The results speak for themselves.

For businesses that may be hesitant to take the first step, this case study serves as proof that the right expertise can unlock untapped savings and efficiencies. If you’re on the fence, let this be the reassurance you need—moving forward with confidence can lead to transformative results.

If your business operates in an energy-intensive industry and you’re unsure about the reliefs available, get in touch with Bonham & Brook today. The savings could be more significant than you realise.

How our sector experts optimised the R&D tax process for GP biotec

GP Biotecs

The Challenge

GP Biotec’s earlier R&D tax claims placed a heavy burden on internal teams. The process was complex, resource‑intensive, and detracted from core business operations. The company needed an advisor who could reduce this strain while maximising the benefit of government incentives.

The Challenge

The Solution

Bonham & Brook’s technical consultant, Eric, brought immediate confidence through his deep understanding of AD plants. The process was handled smoothly in the background, requiring minimal input from the client. Key elements included:

Unmatched sector expertise
Clear, tailored guidance
Streamlined process with minimal client burden

“Don’t hesitate. It’s well worth exploring, and you may be surprised by the level of benefit available.”

Impact & Results

Meaningful tax savings secured, offsetting significant site and equipment investments
Reduced internal workload, freeing the team to focus on operations
Confidence in meeting ACCA obligations
Complete confidence in the process

"The process was seamless. We secured meaningful tax savings, and what surprised us most was how well the team understood our industry.”

Lucy Owen, Regulatory Compliance Manager, Biotec Ltd

Why Bonham & Brook?

The standout factor was technical understanding. Eric’s grasp of AD operations reassured GP Biotec that their claim was in safe hands. The seamless process contrasted sharply with previous experiences, delivering both efficiency and value.

Working with Bonham & Brook

Transparent, responsive communication and tailored advisory support
Deep expertise in legislative compliance and sustainability strategy

Looking Ahead

GP Biotec continues to work with Bonham & Brook across multiple areas. With limited government support for the sector, incentives like R&D tax relief are vital for enabling investment and growth. Bonham & Brook’s expertise ensures GP Biotec can confidently leverage these opportunities.

What Happens When You Stop Managing R&D Taxes Internally

ChestPal

The Challenge

As an innovation-led organisation, ChestPal recognised the importance of tax relief to support their cash flow. Investing heavily in R&D but lacking the in-house tax expertise to navigate the complex R&D Tax Relief process, ChestPal sought a specialist partner. Given HMRC’s increased scrutiny around R&D claims, Bonham & Brook was recommended to the client as a reliable advisor who placed a strong focus on compliance.

The Solution

Our team worked closely with ChestPal’s CFO and R&D lead to clearly identify qualifying R&D activities. Via a streamlined process, and high technical literacy from the B&B side, we submitted a robust claim with a high degree of confidence in HMRC approval. Taking over the admin burden of the claim, the B&B team allowed the client to stay focused on core operations.

Impact & Results

With our support, ChestPal successfully received substantial R&D tax credits on two rebates, providing financial relief that was directly reinvested back into the business. The company noted they would not have been able to manage the application without Bonham & Brook’s expertise.

“The R&D Tax Relief process can be complex and time consuming. Working with Bonham and Brook saved our business significant time and effort, enabling us to focus on our business.”

Steve Atkinson, CEO, ChestPal Ltd

Why Bonham & Brook?

Bonham & Brook stood out with a strong proposal, transparent pricing, and a team that included ex-HMRC inspectors. This gave the client immediate confidence. The client also highlights our team’s ability to quickly grasp their technical work and hold high-level conversations with their engineers, as a crucial advantage.

Working with Bonham & Brook

Bonham & Brook was recommended to ChestPal for our strong reputation in the innovation space. Even before engaging with us, they were impressed by our proven track record & technical credibility of our team. ChestPal were on the lookout for a partner who could simplify a complex process & Bonham & Brook stood out as the most capable and trusted partner to do just that.

“Applying for R&D tax credits is too complex and time consuming to manage alone. We will definitely be using Bonham and Brook again”

Looking Ahead

ChestPal views Bonham & Brook as a trusted partner and intends to continue working together as they grow and scale their innovations in healthcare.
