Environment Policy

Roots International recognises that in order to be a successful and valued partner to its customers and stakeholders, business must be conducted in a sustainable manner. This means that, in addition to operating a business that delivers good commercial value in fulfilling customer objectives, we must be sure that our services are delivered in a way that does not threaten the ability of future generations to enjoy these same amenities.

With this objective in mind, we have adopted this Environment Policy, to demonstrate and formalise our commitment to continually improve the environmental performance of our company itself and the elements of industry we support and facilitate.

  1. Implementing robust policies and procedures to ensure that our staff and those who act in our name comply with legal requirements and support our policy objectives
  2. Understanding the provenance of the material we supply – insisting on robust certificates of origin where applicable and systematically ensuring that conflict materials cannot enter our supply chain.
  3. Developing beneficial opportunities for customers to maximise the benefits of reclaimed, recycled and alternatively sourced materials.
  4. Support of the wider community through charitable donations.
  5. Maintaining strong emergency response and contingency plans.
  6. Monitoring of meaningful indicators of environmental impact and targeted objectives to improve these measurements.
  7. Effective investigation and corrective action in response to any identified occurrence that falls short of our environmental expectations.
