Our EnvironmentHotelshopuk is increasingly aware, not only of global concerns, but of those of our local environment. As active member of our local community we share its concerns and make every effort to minimise any adverse effects that our undertakings and operations may have on the environment, our employees, customers and suppliers.
We are committed to good environmental practice and ensure the responsible use of energy throughout the business including energy conservation and energy efficiency. |

We are committed to the ethical disposal of electrical and electronic equipment via the WEEE scheme and we are in the process of changing over our company vehicles to Hybrid models.
The company has developed and implemented a solid waste reduction and recycling policy with quantitative goals to reduce non re-useable or recyclable waste. More than 90% of paper used in the office (for internal and administrative use) consists of sustainable (FSC, recycled or sustainably produced) paper. We also have a double-sided printer to further conserve paper usage and have a sophisticated scanner that reduces the need for paper copies of documents. Our old print cartridges are also recycled, and we have even introduced electronic payslips for staff thus reducing paper usage even further.
The company is also committed to reuse/recycling of waste and separates all materials which can be recycled (or reused) by the business (including glass, paper, organic waste and plastics).
Filtered water is provided to all staff thus avoiding the use of plastic bottles, and china crockery and proper cutlery are used to negate the need for disposable plates and cups.
We are determined to continually improve our environmental performance and involve employees in our environmental programme and provide necessary training to enable them to discharge their responsibilities.
