trusted Suppliers observe our Statement and are accountable for their own activities when providing their services or

As a Ltd Company, Chemisure is committed to ensuring that the environmental impact of our operations is as
minimal as possible, including the reduction of our carbon footprint (Decarbonisation)

Measures towards this include:

  • As standard new company vehicles issued are electric / hybrid, with socket points being available at office sites and
    installed at employee’s homes, to reduce GHG emissions.
  • Responsible chemical management; purchase from reputable supplier, building positive relationships with top
    management of chemical suppliers to ensure that products are continually reviewed and replaced with
    environmentally friendly products and or/packaging.
  • To carry out both internal (the ‘Organisation’) audits and external (Supplier) audits as necessary to review and
    identify any areas of concern and manage any corrective measures or action plans required

The business also expects all Company personnel and Suppliers to be mindful of ways in which they can reduce
unnecessary waste or pollution whilst conducting their daily duties/business activities. These include, but are not
limited to, the following:

  • To purchase goods and services from ethically approved suppliers that provide evidence of their commitment
    to sustainable resource management, including the abolition of Modern Slavery.
  • Working to ‘paperless’ the principles, digitalising records where ever possible and avoiding any unnecessary
    printing, to conserve paper.
  • Keeping travel to a minimum by using other forms of communication, such as conference / video calls or email.
  • Water recycling/water harvesting, conserving water, when possible, from sinks and bathrooms.
  • Using re-fillable water bottles, or making use of single-use plastic where possible, to avoid plastic waste.
  • Ensuring that all waste is recycled where appropriate, using the recycling bins situated at each site.
  • Turning off all electrical appliances such as computers, when not in use, to conserve resources.
  • Only making use of heaters / air conditioning when required and not changing the temperature without prior
    permission from your manager.

This Policy is communicated to all workers, employees, suppliers and sub-contractors and is made available to
interested parties.
