Sustainability Statement

  • Green-tech as a business is an ambassador of the landscape environment, its preservation and planning for the future.

As a company, Sustainability is a key corporate objective for Green-tech. We strive to employ sustainability throughout our business practices from product conception and manufacture through to delivery to the customer.

We work in an industry that uses plastic for the protection of trees and shrubs, but we are working hard to find viable alternatives. We have joined forces with Tubex to deliver their Tree Shelter Collection and Recycling Programme. It is the first of its kind in the UK and is a cost-effective solution that is within reach for everyone.

In 2020 we set out our sustainability statement alongside several environmental and sustainability pledges for delivery over a five-year period. We have already made significant progress.

Green Procurement

With over 16,000 product lines within our portfolio, we are conscious of our responsibility to purchase products and services that achieve our environmental, social and economic goals. The key areas of sustainable influence for our procurement structure include:

  • Preference is given to the purchase of products manufactured from recycled or recyclable materials.
  • Our purchasing team works within the guidelines set out by ISO 9001 and ISO 14001
  • Reducing purchasing cost
  • Working with suppliers who operate within the ISO 14001 framework
  • Preference is given to goods manufactured with the UK
