Our Environmental Policy
We take a proactive approach to all environmental issues...
We are dedicated to reducing our impact and the impact of our products on the environment. Having a positive effect on the planet is paramount to the ethos of our organisation – we strive to eliminate any releases to land, air or water; we have a positive recycling policy throughout the organisation and use environmentally friendly treatment and disposal practices for waste not eliminated at source or recycled. All existing manufacturing facilities undergo a continual process of monitoring to assure compliance to all legal requirements
- Everyone at Duncan Reeds is responsible for and committed to executing our environmental policy.
- We encourage our suppliers and clients to respect our environmental policy.
- We are currently working towards achieving FSC & PEFC accreditation and are committed to reaching ISO 14001 compliance in the near future.
The Rabbit Group and Duncan Reeds Ltd have worked in collaboration in sustainable waste disposal for a number of years. The two companies share a strong commitment to the green disposal of waste and both work pro-actively to support recycling practices that are in line with EU directives and the UK's commitment to the Kyoto Treaty. The Rabbit Group is pioneering a new way of converting waste to energy called Enviropower - a thermal treatment plant that converts C&D waste to fuel which is then used to power turbines that will offset 4MW of electicity on the National Grid.
