Congratulations to Dan who celebrates 10 years of service with Futures Supplies.

How fantastic.

Judged on how we limit our environmental impact and leading the way to a greener and more sustainable future, we are delighted to have scooped the top accolade at the ‘Green Guardian Awards’.

The Awards recognise companies who help protect and improve the environment.

We are all over the moon to have collected this award.

We are over the moon that we have been successful in achieving ‘Distributor Service Excellence’ awards consistently since 1997 – that’s ten whole years!

Acknowledged as an accurate reflection of service levels in the cleaning and janitorial supplies industry, the CHSA “Distributor Service Excellence Awards’ are a biennial independent survey to measure the delivery of customer service.

Graham Fletcher, General Secretary commented,”Futures Supplies has performed magnificently to achieve such a high level of service performance. This is an example to everyone in the industry”.

We are proud to be ‘an example’ to other businesses.

Judged on financial performance, future objectives and competitive advantage, we are honoured to have received the top accolade of ‘Business of the year 2006’ from The British Chamber of Commerce.

Peter Mileham, President of the BCC said “Futures Supplies is a business that really stands out from the crowd. The competition was fierce. Making it to the shortlist is tough, winning is reserved for only the very best.”

 

Great stuff and very proud!

We believe that whilst it is critical, it is not enough just to reduce carbon emissions through better energy management and targets.

Unfortunately, we still have to use energy as part of the commercial process and therefore, until technology can provide more answers to help further reduce or eliminate emissions, ‘offsetting’ is the only way to deal with the problem.

The CarbonNeutral Company offers best practice carbon offset projects in energy efficiency, forestry and renewable energy through an independent audited and verified process.

A baseline assessment of our carbon footprint has been carried out and through a combination of direct emission reduction and indirect offsetting actions, the net greenhouse gas emissions associated with our business are now ZERO.

Recognised for our outstanding commitment to business, enterprise and innovation, we are delighted to have been awarded the accolade of ‘Business Champion 2006’ by The Croydon Guardian Newspaper in partnership with Croydon Council.

Being recognised as ‘the’ local business leading the way for future generations’ is just fabulous.

Voted Europe’s most eco-friendly vehicle and ‘Car of the Year’ in 2005 we have just added our first Toyota Prius to our vehicle fleet.

Producing only 104g/km CO2 emissions, 405 lower than the recommended European Standard in 2005, the Hybrid Synergy Drive technology cuts fuel consumption by as much as 40% when compared to a conventional petrol engine.

In this year’s prestigious ‘Business in The Community Awards’, we are delighted to have received a widely recognised ‘Big Tick’ for our commitment to our community, charity and environmental projects.

We really hope our success will inspire and encourage other businesses to get involved in their local community projects and consider their influence beyond the workplace.

Watch out we have been shortlisted, for the second consecutive year, for the Lord Mayor of London’s prestigious Dragon Awards, which recognise socially responsible businesses and their community involvement.

Fingers tightly crossed – the winners will be announced on 26^th September.
