Polythene UK Celebrated For Environmental Policy

(EMAILWIRE.COM, August 22, 2013 ) Witney, UK -- Sustainability has become a key issue that UK business owners need to address, and the team at Britain's number one Polythene supplier - Polythene UK - has embraced this concern wholeheartedly. Consideration about the environment is becoming more and more important, and this is especially relevant for the plastics industry.

Polythene UK have developed a number of products that offer greener benefits, including Polylite. This product is essentially a standard polythene material, but multi-layered and lightweight - offering supreme efficiency and cutting weight of consumption by up to 20%. This offers financial savings as well as environmental benefits, and has proven to be a popular option for many clients. But perhaps the most impressive of the products that Polythene UK offers is Polyair. This material is bio-based, 100% recyclable, and carbon-positive. This can be considered one of the most sustainable materials on the market, and the brochure states, Rather than being oxy-degradable, our new Polyair material is bio-based. Made from sugar cane, its the process of photosynthesis as the plant grows, that makes this product carbon positive. The sugar cane actively captures CO2 from the atmosphere, while at the same time releasing oxygen making this material not just green, but proactively green.

Polythene UK's green efforts have not gone unnoticed, with none other than the Prime Minister, David Cameron recognizing the team's contribution to improving carbon emissions. Upon arriving to officially open the new Polythene UK offices in Witney, Mr. Cameron said; The new office building is fantastic and I am pleased to hear just how environmentally friendly it is. With their new offices and exclusive products Polythene UK are certainly proving their green credentials and I hope that other UK businesses will feel inspired to follow in their footsteps.

The team has also been nominated as finalists in the 2013 Plastics Industry Awards, including being placed in the "Best Business Initiative" and "Best Environmental or Energy Efficiency Programme" annual awards. This recognizes Polythene UK's innovative approach to their products, as well as their continuing focus on achieving Greener status.

Locally, Polythene UK received a major accolade from Oxfordshire Country Council, by winning the Oxfordshire Business Awards Energy & Environment Award. This is the fourth award that Polythene UK have won at the Oxfordshire Business Awards, as they continue to go from strength-to-strength in the local community. This particular award means that the company have officially been recognised as the greenest business in the county of Oxfordshire.

According to Polythene UK's Managing Director, James Woollard, his aim is to create "the greenest polythene company ever", and it is "fantastic that all of our green efforts are being recognised". Whilst the company continue to provide the highest quality Polythene materials, they are taking their environmental responsibilities seriously and setting the standard for other businesses in Oxfordshire and across the UK.
