- Waste management: More and more companies are after your waste – used cooking oils; food waste; cardboard.
- Partnering with local businesses could turn your waste into cash.
- Don’t waste unused products: Are you aware of all the sale or return schemes run by your suppliers? You might be able to get your money back on some of the costs.
- Investigate all government saving initiatives: There are many subsidised schemes and interest free energy efficiency loans helping small business to implement a more efficient energy management programme such as investing in more efficient equipment. Contact the Carbon Trust to find out more.
- Save on your inkjet costs: Use email where possible, set your PC to print double-sided and refill printer, fax and photocopier cartridges. Use inkjet refills instead of buying new ones. Always recycle your used cartridges.
- Tell your staff and customers about your energy efficiency: If you’ve achieved a low carbon standard – tell everyone about it! Always publicise your commitment to reducing your environmental impact. More than a third of consumers would favour recyclable products or those with minimal packaging.
- Get involved in your local community : Find out if your local charity could benefit from your waste products. Are there schemes that can be done in partnership? Community involvement is seen as increasingly important by consumers. Community projects can help raise awareness of your business as well as helping out a good cause.
