Amelix is to become a cleaner, greener and better place to work.
We are constantly looking at the company’s carbon footprint. We want to become carbon neutral asap and our overall aim is to become a carbon positive company by introducing some simple measures to our business operations.
Some simple measures we have already introduced across all our sites are:-
- All our commercial print, both corporate and promotional, is printed on recycled paper using eco friendly vegetable based inks.
- We print and photocopy on both sides of paper where possible.
- We recycle everything – all waste paper, plastic bottles and cans, printer cartridges are now recycled.
- We’ve changed the margin settings on our documents to fit more on a page.
- Our staff are being encouraged to re-use envelopes and parcel packaging where possible
- Our staff now use pens from start to finish.
- Our staff don’t print out emails unnecessarily.
- We switch off all equipment that isn’t being used.
- Turn off lights and power at source.
But all of this is just the start. We are introducing car sharing initatives for all our staff and will be rewarding those who think about the environment when coming to work and as a business are promoting company sponsored green events.
We have also carbon offset all company travel journeys, and all of our sourced materials where possible come from sustained sources.
In 2009 we have also made every promotion we undertake carbon neutral by offsetting the carbon footprint of that activity, this price will be included in your final bill and we are confident to be able to say that every promotion you use Amelix for will be Carbon Neutral so you will be doing your bit to save our planet.
Being green however is not just about energy elements we try to source and support local economies whenever possible, And All of our imported goods also arrive from safe suppliers that have been independently checked and verified and the products come from clean factories that are free from Child Labour and pay market wage rates. We believe and are committed to promoting sustainability in commerce and trade.
