David Thompson MD Chartham Marine
Being involved in the marine and shipping industry, we are aware of the impact that the marine travel and ships crew movements we book on our clients behalf can have on our planet.

Green issues, carbon trading and emission reductions are high up on the lists of many of our customers to address.

We too are conscious about how we as a business can do our bit to reduce emissions and improve energy usage to ensure that we provide a continued safe and strong environment for our children and their children’s children.

As a company we are committed to implement the following policy within our offices by ensuring the staff are aware of the benefits to the environment of doing the below, we will;

o Recycle all paper matter, cardboard and plastics and ensure these are taken away by specialists

o Paper is re-used where possible and then shredded and recycled.

o We print only essential documents.

o We send old printer cartridges to a specialist for re-cycling

o Old mobile phones are sent to a specialist for recycling who also provide a donation to our dominated charity.

o Introduce plants to the office to improve air quality.

o Turn off computers and any other electrical appliances at night and weekends or when not in use.

o Purchase all offices supplies locally if possible to reduce product miles and to support local business, where possible these items will be recycled products.

o Purchase only bio friendly cleaning products.

o Purchase office refreshments locally and ensure where possible that they are from Fair Trade companies.

The above are just the first 10 steps to improving our environment and we encourage staff to add to this list
