Outstanding Branding Receives Silver Rating in Recycling and Stands Out as a Global Leader in Planet Saving Techniques
United Kingdom – The team at Outstanding Branding was awarded the Silver Standard Rating in global recycling efforts from UK-leading sustainability auditor, First Mile. The Silver Rating places #teamOB among the top 20% of companies in the UK who participate in recycling programmes.
In 2016, Outstanding Branding recycled 1.65 tonnes of material, 4 streams and had an overall recycling rate of 100%. This places the company within just a few points of achieving the Gold Standard in 2017.
“We believe in a world that you can recycle everything – from office waste to food and at Outstanding Branding, we think it’s our responsibility to equip our team with opportunities to have a favourable impact on the environment,” says Sarah Penn, CEO.
First Mile works with over 14,000 businesses to help promote awareness and provide services to make it easy for companies like #teamOB who want to make a difference in saving our planet. According to Bruce Bratley, founder of First Mile, “we recycle 66% of all materials we collect which compares to an average recycling rate of just 33% in London.” The intent is to decrease the amount of waste that goes to the landfill. “It is our commitment to be as carbon neutral a possible and reinforces our core value of Respect – to our customers and the environment,” says Penn.
