In the past year, the environment has once again become a central issue. This time, the approach taken by promoters of the issue has been broader and more global that ever before.
AD company has had a defined environmental policy for many years – see “Environmental Policy”. Every year we conduct a review of our environmental work in order to set new goals and improve the environment, both locally and globally.
During the initial phase of AD company’s environmental work, several local goals were set – goals such as better insulation, environmentally friendly lighting of warehouse and work space, and using only approved print inks. We achieved our goals and have now shifted our focus to our suppliers and to the products we purchase.
Ad company is affiliated with the Swedish REPA and El-kretsen recycling programmes. These affiliations ensure that AD company carries out the necessary reporting and financial appropriations for the future scrapping or re-use of imported products distributed in AD companys name.
Discussions have commenced with AD companys primary supplier with a view to sourcing an environmentally friendly range. While AD companys suppliers have shown increased interest in working in a more environmentally conscientious manner, movement toward this goal is still slow. The price of products such as cotton will be higher and larger quantities will be required if the cotton is to be grown and processed in accordance with the environmental requirements we impose.
