The business has also installed EV charging points to all three offices across Northern Ireland and introduced a team initiative.
The Green Team is made up of 28 members from across the group who meet up monthly to monitor and develop initiatives for a more sustainable future, which are then rolled out to colleagues.
Green Team initiatives include sharing tips on reducing printing, lighting, temperature control, transport and waste through a bi-monthly newsletter which keeps the business up to date with recent projects and includes useful advice to help us all live a more sustainable lifestyle.

Speaking about the new EV charging points, Mick O'Reilly, Power NI Innovation Specialist, said: "EV points are a real game changer to how people commute during their working day. The points allow people with plug-in vehicles to charge their cars while they are at work and reducing the need to top up with petrol or diesel. Therefore, we anticipate that staff's easy access to EV charge points will encourages people to consider an EV in the future.
"As a Green Team member, we emphasise that the small steps to reduce waste, emissions and pollution is in our control, which is why we have developed ideas that are cost effective and simple to apply to anyone's everyday routine."
