Environmental Policy
Sequoia Technology is an environmentally aware company. As a distributor not manufacturer, we are not accredited to any formal environmental standard. However, we take our responsibilities to the environment seriously for the benefits of all today, and for future generations.
Our culture is to use nature's resources wisely and to minimise waste by internal recycling and reuse wherever possible. We will comply with our local council's recycling policy, segregate our refuse accordingly and enable the collection of materials for recycling which otherwise would have been destined for landfill.
Our waste is principally packaging and paper products:-
Packaging from incoming deliveries is used for outgoing shipments where suitable. Polystyrene chips, boxes and IC tubes (whose anti-static suitability is proved) are reused. We purchase second-hand IC tubes/trays (again whose anti-static suitability is proved). We also use shredded paper from office waste.
Paper usage is minimised by the use of electronic transmission of documents and data sheets where possible. We source paper for printing with a high recycled content. We use recycled toner cartridges in our printers and return them to the supplier for further recycling.
We recycle all unused boxes, cardboard and paper via internal and external bins for regular collection by our refuse collectors.
This Environmental Policy will be reviewed by our management regularly as part of our Quality System, in order to ensure that we continue to take advantage of new approaches to recycling and waste disposal as they become available
