Sustainability is at the forefront of what we do and central to how and what we supply.
We’re on a mission to minimise our impact on the environment by creating practical solutions that don’t compromise safety. Through initiatives focussed on removing single-use plastics and switching to renewable fuels, we’re on the path to a more sustainable future.
We’re working in partnership with suppliers, customers, and manufacturers to influence the entire value chain. Our 'Scope 3' journey means we will look beyond general emissions, taking a closer look at how our goods and services impact the environment.
We believe a good supply chain is a sustainable supply chain. That's why reducing waste and carbon emissions is naturally at the core of what we do. And our unique approach will help customers fulfil their environmental commitments and enhance sustainability credentials. We also work with our partners and manufacturers to prioritise sustainability in the supply chain and give more sustainable choices to customers.
Local deliveries are made in our electric van whenever we can. For wider deliveries, our chosen parcel network is DPD, who commits to making their parcel delivery carbon neutral. We have also installed EV charging points at our office and distribution centre locations, and we have EVs and hybrids in our fleet.
We source all our electricity from renewable sources across all sites we operate, and ensure our Gas is carbon offset. Partnering with leading companies in renewable energy, we also support the sector and work with partners on innovative safety and PPE solutions for unique hazardous environments.
We understand that more customers are looking for a supplier partner that thinks way beyond price points. Our values reach across the whole chain, as we use our decades of experience and knowledge to help manufacturers and partners enhance their sustainability.
We’re dedicated to finding alternative, greener materials. Our extensive workwear range now includes 100% recycled (made with post-consumer polyester or recycled bottles), biodegradable, reusable, and vegan products.
We’re continually scanning the horizon to find and create more sustainable ways of working. Such as CtrlFlow ECA, a super concentrated chemical that reduces single-use plastic bottles and developed an environmentally non-polluting disinfectant.
Our journey towards sustainability is just that – a journey. We are accredited to ISO14001:2015, which sets objectives and targets for our business, as well as helping to enhance our environmental performance.
We recognise that our actions as a supplier partner and how we support customers has a huge impact on sustainability. That's why we design our innovative services, products, and solutions around helping them reduce, reuse, and recycle.
CtrlCloud is one way we deliver value-adding services, with a smarter way to take control of your orders and manage stock, consignments, inventories, and more.
Our ZeroWaste service can help you to account for every item and contribute towards your company’s environmental goals.
Electrochemical activation (ECA) technology is an environmentally sensitive way to clean, as well as a cost-effective and hygienic solution. CtrlFlow enables you to create the solution on demand.
Every company wants to create less waste and use less resources. That's why working with partners to actively improve substantiality is a big part of our business model. We want customers to get the maximum life out of products, which only improves the value of what we offer.
