Commerce

The UK commerce sector ranges from banks to insurance companies, and services to sellers.

The impact of the sector on the environment is considerable, with the UK industrial and commerce sector producing approximately 13 million tonnes of commercial waste per year.

The scope for resource efficiency by all office-based businesses is considerable and everyone can do their bit to become leaner by spotting improvement opportunities and reducing wastage.

Envirowise offers businesses advice and information on how to counteract the impact of rising costs through resource efficiency measures, including smarter procurement practices, improved process control, better water management, energy efficiency, waste management and greener packaging.
