Our Environmental Policy

Our aim is to reduce the impact of our operations on the environment. Concern for the environment is a fundamental part of our decision making process.

We aim to:

• Source, design, manufacture and distribute our products in ways that contribute to lowering energy usage, carbon emissions and waste
• Lower carbon emissions through reducing energy usage and raising the energy efficiency of our operations
• Use energy produced from renewable or low-carbon sources where practicable
• Ensure, as a minimum, compliance with all applicable legal requirements, as well as meeting or exceeding other requirements to which our parent company, DS Smith Plc, subscribes
• Apply risk management techniques to identify and mitigate environmental risks and impacts
• Consider key suppliers’ environmental policies and credentials as part of the process for their evaluation and selection
• Strive for continuous environmental improvement through the setting and reviewing of objectives and targets
