Climate change is one of the biggest issues on the business agenda and we want to do what we can to help manage CO2 emissions and use energy more efficiently.
Our aim is systematically to reduce our impact on the environment, while still growing our business and we are currently in the process of devising deliverable targets to help us do this.
Targets have been set for each of our bakeries and distribution centres. There is a regular system of reporting and energy teams have been established to identify opportunities for savings and champion training and awareness. Across the business, we are taking measures to reduce the use of paper, printing and stationery and increase recycling. We have installed energy efficient hand dryers, low energy lighting and responsive light controls that switch themselves on and off, as needed. Volunteer ‘green teams’ have also been created to look for savings at work and to encourage people to think of ways to save fuel and energy for themselves, such as car sharing and home insulation.
