Environment

 

It is our policy to reduce the volume of packaging entering the Consumer/Waste/Recycling chain by minimising thickness/area wherever possible; and to ensure the materials used minimise energy and are capable of reuse, recycling or incineration without creating environmental hazards.

Due care and regard is taken of the effects on the environment from each of our manufacturing processes and products:-
  • We endeavour to reuse, or recycle, the majority of waste material created within our production processes. Our paper and board waste enters the national chain of waste paper collection for reprocessing and recycling, having itself originally come from that source or from renewable forest farming resources.

  • We do not emit or dispose of any hazardous wastes from our factories other than in approved ways or to licensed facilities. Nor do we use CFC gases in production, or raw materials which themselves have been made using CFC's. We must not expose our employees to potentially hazardous risks arising from production processes or materials.

  • In addition, as part of our continuing drive to reduce operating costs, particular attention is given to minimising the consumption of energy resources.

  • Our subsidiaries are encouraged to become members of a range of organisations involved and concerned with post use waste recovery and reuse. And importantly our products should be capable of being recycled into secondary uses if collected, cleaned and returned to source by infrastructures which in some cases may not be fully developed in the U.K.

  • M.Y. Holdings is a member of the Packaging Federation, an organisation formed specifically to promote and develop better awareness of the benefits packaging brings, and to clarify misunderstandings regarding packaging's contribution to the waste problem.
