Corporate Responsibility

Orchid IT are committed to reducing their carbon footprint and in general any harm that their work may have on the local and regional environment.

Orchid Business Computing Ltd is committed to leading the industry in minimising the impact of its activities on the environment.

Our environmental policy and procedures are designed to make all employees, visitors and suppliers aware of their actions and contributions that may make an impact on the environment.

The key points of its strategy to achieve this are:

•  Minimise waste by evaluating operations and ensuring they are as efficient as possible.

•  Minimise harmful emissions through the selection and use of its fleet and the source of its power requirement.

•  Actively promote recycling both internally and amongst its customers and suppliers.

•  Promote alternative methods of transport for commuting including Cycling and Walking.

•  Source and promote a product range to minimise the environmental impact of both production and distribution.

•  Meet or exceed all the environmental legislation that relates to the Company.

•  Use an accredited program to offset the greenhouse gas emissions generated by our activities.

Within our green procedures, we reuse or recycle all of our incoming packaging materials, trade waste and minimise our use of paper. We ensure all electrical waste such as old computer equipment, is removed from clients' premises and disposed of in compliance with WEEE directives.

Our clients can be assured that when it comes to choosing an IT partner, we are an eco-friendly company.
