Greener supply chains

What we buy, how we specify it and who and where we buy from all has a significant effect on the environment. Choosing carefully, taking the overall environmental impacts into account, makes a difference to your company's overall environmental performance.

Issues related to paper and print include:

• Sustainable forest management

• Control of pollution

• Energy consumption

• Waste

• Water consumption


A review of your supply chain will let you understand its impacts, and make environmentally informed decisions about how you buy. A green purchasing strategy will help you reduce the overall environmental footprint of your business, as well as its carbon footprint.
