Environment
We are constantly looking
for innovative ways to reduce the impact our business activities have upon the
environment and by taking constant small steps we believe we can offset
increasing overheads and maintain our ability to provide cost-effective
solutions for our customers, while helping to preserve the planet for future
generations.
We
develop systems processes and adopt technological innovations to reduce our
clients' and our own energy consumption water usage, carbon emissions and
waste.
With our
cleaning service, for example, we are constantly looking for new ways to reduce
the impact of our business activities upon the environment. These innovations
include not only the selection of chemicals we also source environmental
friendly and/or non-chemical products for our service operations, such as micro
fibre fabrics. Many of our vehicles are managed with a GPRS system to improve
efficiency and reduce fuel consumption and carbon footprint.
The environmental management system at PWB
seeks to manage our impact to the environment by managing the environmental
aspects from our warehousing activities as well as to minimize potential
impacts from emergency situations caused by accidents.
We also
seek to educate our clients in the benefits of pest prevention as opposed to
pest control, allowing us to eventually dispense with the use of chemicals.
A few
special initiatives include the encouragement of a more responsible use of
energy and resources among our employees, seen for instance in the PWB office
reminders to “reuse, recycle, and reduce.”
