We will comply with all current legislation and attempt to anticipate future environmental legislation. We will base our environmental strategy around the hierarchy of Reduce, Reuse, Recycle  and are committed to continuously reviewing, evaluating and improving our programme, and it is also one of our main priorities to encourage all our customers, suppliers and business associates to do the same. Not only is this sound business sense for all; it is also a matter of delivering on our duty to care towards future generations.
