If you really must print documents, take care to keep paper wastage to a minimum by printing on both sides.
Keep printing to a minimum
Instead of sending company newsletters or correspondence in the post, save paper by simply sending an email.
Wash up!
Instead of using plastic cups or cutlery, provide reusable cups, plates and cutlery and encourage your staff to reuse – this will save you money in the long run, as well as helping to save the environment!
Invest in a scanner
Scanning existing documents ready to email to customers, staff or clients is a great way to keep paper wastage to a minimum as you’ll be able to share a digital copy rather than printing the same item multiple times.
Recycle waste paper
Sometimes wasting paper is unavoidable, but with our confidential shredding and paper recycling services your business will still be able to do its bit for the environment and keep landfill waste to an absolute minimum!
Reuse boxes
