Environmental Policy

Source Design Ltd is committed to minimising the impact of its activities on the environment.

The key points of its strategy to achieve this are:

• Minimising waste by evaluating operations and ensuring they are as efficient as possible
• Reducing power consumption by turning off unused computers and other electrical equipment when not in use 
• Utilising the ‘energy-saver’ function of computers and other electrical equipment
• The use of energy-efficient lighting and motion-sensor switching wherever possible
• Utilising instantaneous, on-demand, energy-efficient, under-sink hot water units in WCs and a Quooker tap in the kitchen area
• Minimising toxic emissions through car-sharing, walking, or our Cycle To Work scheme and the source of our power requirement
• Actively promoting a ‘print only when required’ mindset, recycling both internally and amongst our customers and suppliers
• Recycling inks, cartridges and all other materials wherever possible
• Meeting or exceeding all the environmental legislation that relates to the Company’s activities
• Offsetting the greenhouse gas emissions generated by our activities and feeding electricity back to the National Grid through our 36-solar panelled, energy-efficient building

Review

The effectiveness of this policy and associated arrangements, together with opportunities for ongoing improvement, will be regularly reviewed and undertaken under the direct supervision of the company directors.
