Our Impact on Society

Our Environmental Policy

Pacific Direct, as a manufacturer and supplier of luxury toiletries and accessories to the Hospitality Industry is committed to minimising the impact of its operations on the environment through its business activities, wherever this is practicable.  We are increasingly aware of both global concerns and our local environment and recognise that the pursuit of economic growth and a healthy environment must be closely linked.

We recognize that waste management is a key aspect of our activities and consider our impact on society at all stages of product development, from manufacture through to distribution, use and disposal.  Compliance with existing legislation and other requirements is seen as only the minimum standards that we will adhere to; and that staff awareness and motivation is key to achieving this vision.

In order to meet with these objectives, Pacific Direct is
. Implementing an Environmental Management System initially in the UK;
. Publicising the policy globally to staff, customers and stakeholders via the website, e-mail and newsletters;
. Committed to research on how we can mitigate the long term impact of our end products by innovative design and by sourcing more   sustainable materials wherever viable;
. Reviewing major suppliers and freight forwarders to ensure they too embrace an environmental code and as a minimum ensure that they comply with legislation, codes of practice and environmental awareness; and
.  Employ green office practices.

We are committed to the implementation of an Environmental Management System and have achieved BS8555 certification which includes the setting and periodic review of objectives and targets. This reinforces our commitment to continual improvement, assessing processes in order to prevent pollution and reduce any adverse effects that our business may have on the environment.

Pacific Direct does not test on animals.
