Sustainability

LBIP LIMITED is committed to promoting sustainability. Concern for the environment and promoting a broader sustainability agenda are integral to LBIP'S professional activities and the management of the organization. We aim to follow and promote good sustainability practices, reduce the environmental impacts of all our activities, and help our clients to do the same.

Our Sustainability Policy is based on the following:

To comply with, and exceed where practicable and possible, all applicable legislation, regulations, and codes of practice
To integrate sustainability considerations into all our business decisions and designs
To minimize the impact on the sustainability of all office and transportation activities
encourage them to adopt sound sustainable management practices

In order to put these principles into practice, we will:

Where possible, if acceptable to our clients, use teleconferencing, video conferencing, or web cams, and efficient timing of meetings to avoid multiple trips when visiting clients. These options are also often more time efficient, while not sacrificing the benefits of regular contact with clients and partners
Reduce the need for our staff to travel by supporting alternative working arrangements where applicable at the Director’s discretion
Minimize our use of paper and other office consumables, for example, by double-siding all paper used, and identifying opportunities to reduce waste
As far as possible, arrange for the reuse or recycling of office waste, including paper, computer supplies, and redundant equipment
Reduce the energy consumption of office equipment by purchasing energy-efficient equipment and practicing good housekeeping
Ensure that timber furniture, and any other timber products, are recycled or from well-managed sustainable sources
Purchase Fairtrade and/or organic products when possible
Ensure that any subcontractors, suppliers, or designers that we employ take account of sustainability issues
Strive to achieve a more paperless office. To this end, several document management systems have been developed that allow employees and customers to retrieve and transmit documents electronically, e.g. PODs Invoices, etc.
