Environment

Thames strives to reduce its carbon footprint and is currently working with the Carbon Trust to gain the ISO14001 accreditation. We make efforts to recycle as much waste as possible with all Plastic and up to 80% of other waste being reused rather than going to landfill sites.

We have also established links with the Essex Wildlife Trust and support its local work by means of corporate sponsorship and encouraging our staff to actively take part in Essex Wildlife events. In addition to this the Essex Wildlife Trust is advising the company on best practise for the disposal of electrical waste and the purchasing of environmentally friendly office materials.
