SUSTAINABILITY

Sustainable procurement is an essential and efficient business practice. Management of our supply chain takes into account environmental, social and ethical factors to facilitate informed and balanced decisions when procuring the required resources for our products.

When managing our supply chain, we actively seek to build enduring relationships and adopt a non-adversarial approach at all levels. Our aim is to create open and collaborative working relationships that deliver value for our clients and long-term opportunities for our business.

It is always our intention to trade fairly and in full cooperation with our subcontractors and suppliers. We work hard to identify competent and like-minded organisations capable of meeting our expectations. This is particularly important with regards to health, safety and environmental considerations, especially the commitments we make to our clients and other stakeholders.  To facilitate this, we are increasingly providing information to our suppliers and subcontractors on our environmental expectations of issues such as rainforest protection. Site visits and other such informal audits of facilities are performed on a regular basis to develop a dialogue with suppliers and subcontractors that might further improve collaboration.

We only engage with suppliers and subcontractors who understand the nature of the products, materials and services they are supplying. Our collaborators must recognise their responsibility to protect the environment and foster good relations with their employees and local communities.
