Director at Marcon, Mark O'Connor commented: "Really proud of our team for achieving the Gold Level in this year's survey results. We are continually exploring and investing in processes that we can implement across our business to help reduce our impact on the environment. Achieving Gold is recognition for this. It also demonstrates to our clients, that as a supplier, we can help them to meet their own environmental targets."
Sponsored by Moy Park and supported by Department for Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs, the Survey scores, recognises, and rewards organisations that are going above and beyond their legal environmental requirements.
Managing Director of Business in the Community Kieran Harding said: "The Survey is an important comparison tool and a way for organisations to not only be recognised for their environmentally sustainable efforts, but also to identify areas where they can improve. It serves to highlight key environmental areas they need to be thinking about for the future.
"Stakeholders, suppliers and the general public are seeking reassurance from businesses that they're doing all they can for the benefit of the environment and participating in the Survey can provide evidence of their commitment to a greener future.
"I want to congratulate and thank all companies that have stepped forward to take part in the Survey and report on their environmental practices."
