Environment : North East Reprographics, The UKs top reseller of Xerox office & production equipment. Aberdeen


	As a leading provider of digital systems, paper, and toner, Xerox UK and North East Reprographics play an important role in influencing the sustainability of our environment. Xerox were the first in their industry to launch remanufacturing initiatives. We remain a leader in creating waste-free products, built in waste-free facilities. And our commitment to environmental improvements extends to our partners, suppliers, and customers.



	Our responsibility focuses on four areas where we can have the most impact:

	Protect our Climate – we reduce our carbon footprint by cutting energy use in our own operations and in the operations of our customers through our energy efficient product and solution offerings. Preserve Biodiversity and the World’s Forests – we responsibly source paper for resale, our technologies enable efficient use of paper and we partner with The Nature Conservancy to promote good forest practices. Preserve Clean Air and Water – we use chemicals carefully and responsibly. We seek alternatives that are less harmful to the environment. Prevent and Manage Waste – we strive to reduce waste in our operations and in the use of our products. We responsibly manage the disposition of waste by seeking reuse and recycling options.

	Your Goals are Our Goals

	Many Xerox customers have their own environmental and sustainability goals. With Xerox technology, products and solutions, Xerox can help our customers reach those goals. Customers want to reduce energy use for cost and environmental savings. Xerox ENERGY STAR offerings and office services can do just that. Customers want Xerox to help them measure the environmental benefits of their actions so they can demonstrate the value to their customers, employees
		and stakeholders.
	Customers want to reduce the use of paper and use environmentally preferable papers. Xerox’s digital technology reduces paper use through easy-to-use features such as two-sided printing and electronic document management. Xerox carefully manages our supply of paper to ensure protection of the world’s forests. We offer recycled content papers and environmentally certified papers from the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) and the Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC). Customers want to reduce waste. Through Xerox’s Green World Alliance program, customers can return spent imaging supplies for reuse or recycling. For equipment at end-of-life, Xerox has a return program to responsibly manage equipment that has reached end of life. Solid ink “cartridge-free” technology further reduces waste. Customers want to protect their indoor air quality. Emissions of chemicals from Xerox products such as ozone and dust are strictly controlled and are well below regulatory requirements.
