Horton Media's environmental credentials

In 2004, Horton Media volunteered as one of seven New Zealand companies to pilot the Enviro-Mark® programme. This government initiative provides a standardized, environmental management system that provides businesses with a framework to assess their performance systematically against agreed standards, with the ultimate aims of minimising waste, reducing environmental risk, and increasing resource efficiency.
Today, abiding by this framework has become a way of life for us. In reality it means that every input to the business is scrutinised and assessed in terms of its impact on the
environment, the degree of control in which we can influence such impact and what alternatives are available.
Regular impact calculations are carried out on everything from the running of company cars, laundering of overalls, use of hand cleaner and rags, through to energy consumption, cleaning fluids, inks and more.
We take it as a great compliment that many of our competitors have now followed suit and implemented such practices into their own business.
