We aim to achieve these goals through the following measures:
- Communicating this environmental policy to staff, suppliers and customers, and reviewing the specific aims and objectives on an annual basis
- Improving day-to-day management and control of equipment to ensure it is running as efficiently as possible
- When purchasing new equipment, choosing the most energy and water-efficient options where possible
- Retrofitting energy and water-saving devices, where possible
- Arranging for specialist lighting surveys to be carried out and implementing energy-efficient recommendations where possible
- Implementing alternative waste management options, in line with the waste hierarchy (reduce, reuse, recycle) and
- Improving vehicle efficiency and safety, optimising fleet journeys and optimising driver efficiency and safety.
