ENVIRONMENT

We aim to conduct our operations in an environmentally sound manner, through continual improvement in the environmental performance of all our activities, work processes, products and services.
We regularly review our processes to ensure that we operate efficiently and update our environmental and quality practices to continue to support our markets and deliver quality products, at the best price. We went on a journey to ensure that:
Everybody within the company works to reduce waste and energy via innovative practices and product development, with visible savings being passed onto our customers and local communities.
We strive to be eco-friendly through energy efficiency, waste control and recycling. We hold ISO14001 Environmental Management System, which manages impact on the environment in the production process and influences the type of products produced, and we continue to apply these principles to our operations.

To achieve this we:

Comply with applicable environmental laws and regulations

Set objectives and targets to reduce our environmental impact

Ensure all employees are aware of this policy and their participation in its implementation

Respond quickly to incidents resulting from our operations, co-operate with industry organisations and authorised government agencies

Annually review our operations and measure progress to ensure compliance with this policy

Locally source goods and services wherever feasible and commercially viable, with many parts and suppliers in a 50 mile radius of our sites

Aim to reduce our environmental impacts associated with the use of transport

In the management of our premises and activities we seek to:

Reduce the consumption of energy and water

Minimise waste by an improved recycling programme and company-wide promotion of the waste hierarchy

Minimise the use of hazardous materials

Take all reasonable steps to prevent pollution
