Addressing environmental issues, proactively.
Improving environmental performance is not a new concept for Orangebox. We've worked consistenly to introduce environmental imrovements for over a decade and whilst 'Tread Softly'
may be our new way of expressing our environmnetal commitment, the truth is that we've been
trying to walk on tip toes for years.
We have implemented an environmental business model that addresses sustainability from
three sides of our business and are working with recognised environmental consultancies
Best Foot Forward and Climate Care to carry out ecological and carbon footprinting to further optimise our performance and have been awarded full FISP accreditation by FIRA.
Firstly - our environmental approach to product design focuses on the use of sustainable
materials and the use of minimal energy for product manufacturing. As well, all of our products
are designed for long service life.
Secondly - our supply chain is optimised to aid sustainable consumption by actively reducing ‘product miles’ and our key suppliers support our environmental aspirations by acting as
material researchers and innovators.
Thirdly - we believe that an environmental agenda should always be a key driver in our growth.
This ‘business eco-culture’ is evident throughout the company, from the boardroom to our
delivery drivers, in our product development strategy, our staff training and ultimately, in.
The manufacturing facility has also been in receipt of a number of awards:
