COLLINS ENVIRONMENTAL SOURCING POLICY

Collins is a responsible company that cares about the environment. We acknowledge that our actions have an impact on the environment and we seek to understand and minimise these impacts. As a company, we are committed to continually improving our environmental performance and to the prevention of pollution and the minimisation of resource use.

We are committed to meeting all applicable legal requirements and the full requirements of all other environmental related programmes to which we subscribe, such as FSC®(Forest Stewardship Council®) and PEFC™ Chain of Custody.

Our policy is, therefore, only to use raw materials from reputable, well established suppliers who are compliant with environmental legislation and procedures. As part of our commitment to the environment we are working towards achieving environmental certifications and having attained FSC® and PEFC™ COC certification (CU-PEFC-817661), to maintain and improve our chain of custody system.
