Working Together

We believe that a positive result can be achieved through mutual collaboration and the sharing of best practice, whether this is us learning from our partners or us helping them do better in terms of their environmental impact.

For example, in November 2008 we held our first Environmental workshop as part of a special customer day.

This workshop followed inclusion of an Environmental element in the independent Market Research we undertook with our customers in 2008, and our attendance at the 2008 National Sustainable Procurement Conference where we were the only manufacturer represented.

In the workshop sessions we shared information about the context of the global climate challenge, why we felt it important to respond, and what we were doing in order to respond to the challenge. We also discussed exemplars of environmental best practice from other industries and looked at their approaches.

Following on from these workshops we are establishing external Environmental Groups comprising customers and people from other organizations to examine the progress we are making, share ideas and understanding, and continually evolve our response.

If you would like to get involved in any of our environmental working groups or workshops, please Contact Us.
