| As an international Company we take our environmental responsibilities extremely seriously with continuous improvement being the driving force of our environmental policy. As a manufacturing company we recognise that our activities have an impact on the environment so we constantly strive to be a good neighbour within all the localities in which we operate, having the greatest respect for all of the assets and amenities of each community. We have specialists dedicated to assessing every aspect of our products and production processes to ensure that any negative effects on the environment are kept to the minimum practicable. Projects both large and small to improve our environmental effectiveness are a regular feature of our capital and revenue expenditure programmes and we work closely with all the external regulatory bodies to monitor and improve our standards of performance. |
