Green Solutions
Packaging – Our reusable packaging allows customers to
receive deliveries in a reusable and recyclable container –
minimising cardboard waste.
Eco Delivery Schedules – Whilst it is the norm in the UK

customers do not always want 5 deliveries a week. For those customers, we offer Eco Delivery Schedules of 1, 2 or 3 days per week. Next day delivery of course available on request.

Confidential Waste can all be collected from your offices at the
same time we deliver your stationery products, saving both
money and delivery emissions.

allows for paperless transactions and a reduction in paper
catalogues.
