NBN International are recipients of the BIC Supply Chain Excellence Award.\u00a0\u00a0 They have their own environmental policy and do everything in their power to protect both the environment and their staff.<\/p>\n<p>All of our main carriers, DPD, DHL, UPS and FedEx have made public commitments to reduce their carbon emissions radically. You can read more about how they are achieving this on each of their websites.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Paper and Cardboard Waste<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We reuse as much paper and cardboard as possible and encourage our staff not to waste paper or print out emails unnecessarily.\u00a0\u00a0 Books to be pulped, as well as cardboard and paper that can no longer be used are sent to a local paper recycling facility at Bolton Bros in Great Blakenham. They are accredited with Environmental Management Certificate ISO 14001 incorporating BS 15713 certification. 100% of the paper they recycle goes back to paper mills.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Staff<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We do everything we can to protect our staff and ensure they work in a safe environment.\u00a0 We are also proud to support the UK\u2019s National Living Wage Scheme, which was designed to ensure that workers are paid a fair living wage.<\/p>\n<p>We continue to look at ways to improve and reduce the impact our business has on the environment.\u00a0 Switching off the lights at the end of the day is the very least of our efforts to help ensure we look after the planet properly.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_relevanssi_hide_post":"","_relevanssi_hide_content":"","_relevanssi_pin_for_all":"","_relevanssi_pin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_unpin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_include_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_exclude_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_no_append":"","_relevanssi_related_not_related":"","_relevanssi_related_posts":"","_relevanssi_noindex_reason":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-11922","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.0 -
