The Planet Matters - Sustainability Matters
At Ardington Archives, we believe that the future of innovation lies in sustainable practices and efficient use of resources. We are committed to sustainability and creating a better tomorrow through our commitment to sustainable practices and the environment. This commitment is deeply rooted in our values and is reflected in our technical capabilities, innovations and the eco-friendly steps we take every day.
Waste to Energy: Turning Trash into Treasure
One of the key aspects of our eco-conscious strategy is focusing on the concept of waste to energy. This innovative approach allows us to convert waste, which would otherwise be destined for landfills, into a valuable source of energy.
By doing so, we are not only reducing the amount of waste that goes into landfills, but we’re also creating a more sustainable and efficient energy source. This is a testament to our technical prowess and our commitment to creating a greener future.
FSC Authorised Standards: Ensuring Responsible Forestry
Our commitment to sustainability extends to our boxes. We are proud to say that our boxes are manufactured to Forestry Stewardship Council (FSC) authorised standards. This ensures that every box we produce comes from responsibly managed forests that provide environmental, social, and economic benefits.
By adhering to FSC standards, we are taking a stand against deforestation and promoting responsible forestry. This is yet another way we are leading the charge towards a more sustainable future.
Shredded Paper Turned into Toilet Paper
Even the smallest of shreds are not wasted. We have implemented a unique recycling program where shredded paper is turned into toilet paper.
This clever initiative not only reduces our waste output but also offers a practical solution to a product that is used daily. It’s a simple but powerful example of how we’re applying innovative thinking to sustainability.
Switching to LED: A Brighter, Greener Future
As part of our ongoing commitment to sustainability, we’ve made the switch to LED lights across our premises. LED lights are not only more energy-efficient than traditional lighting, but they also last longer, reducing the need for frequent replacements.
This switch is not only better for the environment, but it also helps us to reduce our energy costs, showcasing the economic benefits of sustainable practices.
ISO 14001 Environmental Accreditation: A Testament to Our Commitment
We are proud to hold the ISO 14001 Environmental Accreditation, an international standard that recognises our commitment to minimising our environmental impact and continually improving our environmental performance.
This accreditation is a testament to our dedication to the environment and our determination to lead the way in sustainable practices within our industry.
