Environment

Meeting international environmental standards

We are not only able meet your technical requirements, but also co-operate with you on product respective environmental regulations such as Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) and with global initiatives like conflict free sourcing initiative (cfsi) reporting requirements.

We bring that same rigorous discipline to all elements of our business, where we have introduced the core principles of ISO 14001 Environmental Management and ISO 45001 Health and Safety Management and into the way we work, to minimise the impact on the environment and risk to our employees.

Effective waste water control

Since 1996 we have cut our use of fresh water by 20 million gallons each year, with similar quantities of effluent no longer being discharged into the sewer thanks to our treatment plant, which continually reprocesses the waste water produced by our plating rinse systems for reuse. Any solid wastes produced by the water treatment system are compressed and sent for reclamation.

All-round environmental awareness

A switch to low energy lighting and 'smart' controls to detect movement and light levels to activate lights in low use areas has also seen a 33% reduction in lighting energy consumption. And, where possible, we re-use or return all packaging materials, with unusable items and product off-cuts sent for recycling.
