SUSTAINABILITY POLICY
Innovologies Ltd is committed to promoting sustainability. Concern for the environment and
promoting a broader sustainability agenda are integral to Innovologies Ltd.’s professional activities
and the management of the organisation. We aim to follow and to promote good sustainability
practice, to reduce the environmental impacts of all our activities and to help our clients and
partners to do the same.
Principles
Our Sustainability Policy is based upon the following principles:
- To comply with and exceed, where practicable, all applicable legislation, regulations and codes of practice
- To integrate sustainability considerations into all our business decisions
- To ensure that all staff are fully aware of our Sustainability Policy and are committed to implementing and improving it
- To minimise the impact on sustainability of all office and transportation activities
- To make clients and suppliers aware of our Sustainability Policy and encourage them to adopt sound sustainable management practices
- To review and to strive to improve our sustainability performance.
In order to put these principles into practice we will:
Travel and meetings

- Share transport if possible

practical, such as using teleconferencing or video conferencing, and efficient timing of meetings to
avoid multiple trips

- Replace company cars with more efficient models as they become due for replacement Purchase of equipment and consumption of resources
