The OneSource green policy

OneSource is a brand of Paperflow that is environmentally aware but makes real business sense. It's about delivering everything from recycled business paper to ecologically sound printer cartridges. It's about doing so in a single delivery from a single place. It's about making that one journey do twice the work by also taking away paper for recycling. It's about recognising that a small difference in one company won't matter, but a small difference in lots of companies will.

We have an ongoing programme of sourcing ecologically-sound office supplies and offering them where their quality and price are suitable for normal office use. We also encourage our customers to have one delivery for all of their office supply needs - and use our online paperless administration system to save time as well as paper.

Our efforts have resulted in being awarded the ISO 14001 accreditation for environmental management.

If you'd like to try environmentally-aware products before you buy them, call us on 020 8331 2000 and we'll send you a green product sample pack.

ecoTips

Every year we need a forest the size of Wales to provide all the paper we use in Britain.

Recycle where you can, and buy recycled where you can.
