We’re proud not just of what we do, but how we do it. Even the smallest of stones can create positive ripples. We advocate sustainable business in all its connotations; profitable, consistent growth that stems from a responsible mindset, particularly in respect of our climate emergency. Leading by example, we share information and innovations with our contacts because together we are stronger.
Our headline objectives are;
If you would like a copy of our Environmental Policy or Statement, please get in touch.
We proactively measure and manage the impact of our operations across 17 environmental aspects, grading their significant and setting ambitious targets for improvement. Our Integrated Management System is accredited to ISO 14001:2015 and ISO 9001:2015, environmental and quality accreditations that we have held since 2009 and 1992 respectively. This structure has enabled us to reduce our carbon footprint each year thereafter.
We’re proud of the momentum our focus is gaining, our headline achievements are summarised below. Yet we’re not complacent, now is the time for climate action and we’re minimising our impacts further with the goal of operating in a way that is verified carbon neutral by 2025, our 50th trading anniversary.
We want to do this with the highest integrity and in a way that stands up to independent scrutiny. We’re calculating and capturing our direct and indirect Green House Gas (GHG) emissions, Scopes 1, 2 and 3, in a Carbon Footprint Report that follows GHG Protocol Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard methodology. These are verified annually by our carbon partner, Auditel.
Sustainability is an investment. Your values and practices define your organisation, and success can depend on how seriously you take them. We’re here to reflect these values in the resources that you use to win business and do business.
We’ll offer suggestions and proactively seek innovations within our industry that reduce the environmental impact of your projects. Whether you have a print, mailing or corporate gift project, we build environmental considerations into each project brief, offering sustainable stock and ink choices whilst being mindful about print finishes that can compromise the ability of items to be recycled. We question production quantities, avoiding overproduction and streamline mailing projects by improving the accuracy of data. In our work with branded corporate gifts, we seek to avoid single-use items, looking for products made of recycled materials and those that are recyclable at end of life.
Our blog and social platforms share the latest news of our curated range of Sustainable Corporate Gifts, and other products such as eco laminates and potato starch wrap for mailings. We’ll also share tactics that will improve the sustainability of your purchasing and the engagement of your contacts in this approach. If these values resonate with you, get in touch, we’d love to hear about your business goals.
We like to share the sustainable story of paper and print, ensuring that you avoid greenwashing claims, whilst harnessing the power of this tactile means of communication, which is saved, shared and cuts through lots of digital messages. That’s why we’re a member of Two Sides, giving our clients access to resources and logos that reinforce the sustainability of print.
There are so many possibilities with print and we’d love to apply its creativity and flexibility to maximum benefit for your organisation.
