Carvers have traditionally maintained good relations with our local community and the communities in which it trades. The Company believes it is essential to maintain our reputation for being a good neighbour. To this end, our environmental policy helps to formalize our commitment.

We are committed to continuous review of all activities with regard to their effect on the environment.

We will, wherever possible use recycled packaging material and reduce waste from packaging.

We will actively seek to ensure all waste packaging materials and waste consumables are sent for recycling at the end of their life.

Carvers will continuously review all operations which produce Carbon Dioxide to ensure the level of Carbon Dioxide omitted is kept to a minimum.

We will, where possible, encourage their customers to use materials which have the least adverse impact on the environment.

When sourcing timber products, Carvers will encourage and give preference to members of their supply base who ensure timber is grown and harvested in sustainable, managed forests; such sustainability being recognized by being approved by a CPET approved Timber Chain of Custody audit body. Carvers will encourage all members of their timber supply chain to join a suitable CPET approved scheme.
