Investing in the next generation of talent is just one way in which Michael and his team are thinking ahead . The company is also dedicated to supporting sustainability wherever possible , as Michael reveals : “ We ’ re in the early stages of a new sustainability drive . We ’ ve historically been ISO 9001-accredited , but we ’ ve increased our energy efficiency , and now we ’ re ISO 14000-accredited , with the environmental standard attached .
“ That said , we still want to do more in terms of sustainability . We ’ ve got a strong foundation internally , and our goal now is to reach Net Zero in the next few years . We already produce a significant number of products using recycled materials , as our customer base indicated a strong demand for more environmentally friendly options , and we ’ ve responded accordingly . In our view , becoming more eco-conscious has benefited everyone .”
