It is our priority to encourage our staff, customers, suppliers and all business associates to do the same. Not only is this sound commercial sense for all; it is also a matter of delivering on our duty of care towards future generations.
We recycle all glass, paper, plastic and cardboard, and our tapes are professionally recycled. We power down as much as possible without compromising your production.
We are part of the Ecobrick movement to help us take more personal responsibility for our plastic waste.
We also recycle our used pens, felt tips and highlighters with BIC in partnership with Terracycle

Our runners deliver as much as possible on foot.
We support the Code of Best Practice in Sustainable Filmmaking as set out by Filmmakers for Conservation.
