Leading in sustainable transportation, we’ve shifted over 84% of company vehicles to hybrid or electric, with 100% of our field technicians’ vehicles being hybrid. Our Head Office now features 10 PodPoint EV charging stations, and we actively encourage carpooling among company car drivers. To cut our carbon footprint, we encourage public transport use, such as bus and train with close proximity to the Ely train station. We also encourage walk and/or cycle to work.

In our sustainable practices, we use DocuSign to reduce client visits, implemented LED Lighting in Ely, and adopted technology for energy efficiency. We also promote increased work-from-home flexibility, with use of online tools such as Teams and SharePoint.

In our ongoing commitment to responsible practices, we provide a toner recycling scheme for our customers. Our dedication extends to the PrintReleaf reforestation program and a determined effort to minimse packing materials for customer supplies. We also email the majority of our invoices to customer to reduce posting.
