Who we like to deal with
We are committed to responsible, sustainable business and we prefer our suppliers to share these values.
Here we outline the sustainability practices that we would like our suppliers to follow. These practices emphasise environmental responsibility and ethical sourcing. This ensures a commitment to sourcing materials and services ethically and socially, with respect for the environment – an approach that supports our mission to enable a sustainable future.

How it works
We ensure our suppliers meet ethical, social, and environmental standards and that they focus on responsible sourcing.
This ensures fair practices, lowers environmental harm, and supports long-term business success.
Suppliers should be fair, respect rights, protect the environment, and support diversity.
We are committed to preventing modern slavery and human trafficking in our business and supply chain.
What to expect
Sustainable sourcing programme: We encourage suppliers to create decarbonisation plans, report greenhouse gas data, and address modern slavery risks.
Onboarding and due diligence: We ensure suppliers meet ethical, social, and environmental standards through a thorough ESG screening process during onboarding.
Ongoing monitoring: We do regular assessments and performance reviews of suppliers to ensure they continue to meet ethical, social, and environmental standards.
Continuous improvement: We encourage suppliers to consistently enhance their sustainability practices by providing training, educational materials, and monitoring.
