A Tameside design and engineering business is thinking green and prioritising sustainable and environmentally friendly processes to reduce their contribution to climate change.
Adi Life Sciences, Ashton-under-Lyne, is a specialist in the pharmaceutical industry, offering full project management services.
Supporting Tameside Council's Think Green campaign, they have shared how finding sustainable ways to work has always been high on their agenda.
Graham Edge, Design Director at Adi Life Sciences, explained: "For us, being a green business was a priority, as it holds us responsible for how we treat the environment, allowing us to be innovative and constantly evolving.
"It also sets us aside from other businesses who have not yet started to think green and it strengthens relationships between employees and clients, encouraging a positive work environment."
Adi Life Sciences' green workplace practices include recycling ink cartridges and coffee pods, and sending shredded paper to pet shops. They also encourage a 'think before you print' mindset, a cycle to work scheme and an electric car scheme.
They make sure all electrical outlets are switched off at the socket at the end of day and during the day they encourage 'bru rounds' to reduce the usage of coffee machines and kettles.
Adi Life Sciences offer designs to clients that minimise CO2 emissions whilst suggesting to clients to use local manufacturers and materials made using a renewable source of energy to lower their carbon footprint.
