Our products are complex and have a variety of environmental impact and we continually strive to ensure that we reduce our environmental footprint by what we produce, sell and consume to run our businesses.

Some of our efforts include:

  • Including plastics with low or no emissions and with fully recyclable components.
  • Offer recycle product information to customers.
  • Limit the use of painted products and or components.
  • Use environmentally friendly solutions that don`t use toxic chemicals and colouring agents for product presentation and cleaning.
  • Encourage our suppliers to use environmentally friendly packaging.
  • Ask our customers to leave behind packaging so we can recycle these with our suppliers.
  • Use energy efficient products in our organisation.
  • Use recycled consumables
