Our Commitment

We put green issues where they ought to be - right at the heart of our business. We take our environmental responsibilities very seriously. We've already come a long way in reducing our impact on the planet and we're continuing to work hard to make a difference. We constantly assess the way we work to minimise the use of energy and natural resources throughout the business, while keeping our staff up to date with greener ways of getting the job done.

 

Green Policy

Every project we work on at GMP is carbon balanced, and has been the company’s policy since 2006.

We are independently audited by the Edinburgh Centre for Carbon Management and we offset the carbon produced in our operations by planting broadleaf trees in local community woodland.

At the end of every year GMP present certificates to our major clients showing the number of trees planted to offset the carbon produced in the manufacture and distribution of their jobs.

Since 2016, GMP have planted a total of over 30,000 trees! The planetary impact this makes is significant, and we thank our customers for their business contribution to this accomplishment.

As standard, we use FSC accredited papers and where specified, we use recycled stock (with PCW mix), printing on chemical free presses, using vegetable based inks and organic toners.

Waste paper, board, plastic and glass is recycled throughout the company resulting in less than 1% of our waste going to landfill.

If you would like more information, or for one of our team to advise you on improving your own environmental impacts, then please let us know.
