Integrated communications solutions provider Adare SEC has committed to using window envelopes that are 100% recyclable and biodegradable.
The Guildford-based company’s Adare Post service uses around 115 million envelopes a year to deliver its clients’ communications, all of which previously included a plastic-based window. This equated to around 30 tonnes of plastic landfill waste every 12 months.
To address the issue, Adare SEC partnered with French envelope manufacturer Pocheco to produce a fully recyclable and biodegradable product with a window made from pulp.
‘Continually improved sustainability is one of our key business objectives, and an ideal that is shared by our clients,’ said chief operating officer Tom Prestwich. ‘By being the first communications solutions provider in the UK to use 100% recyclable and biodegradable envelopes, our Adare Post service is leading the way in reducing the environmental impact of the postal process.
‘We are totally committed to finding new and innovative ways to further enhance our sustainability. It is essential if we are to achieve our objective of becoming one of the world’s most sustainable communications solutions companies.’
