We are keen to ensure that recycled materials are used as much as possible in our productions. To that end we have discussed with a number of builders, the use of discarded materials from work sites, for use as sets and/or props in future activities. Other practical methods we have in place is use of solar energy, and recycled office supplies.
We value the environment, and wherever possible work to protect it.
Our Environmental policy reads:
- We are an environmentally responsible company. We encourage our employees to go beyond minimum legal standards, and do everything they can to protect the environment, such as use recyclables and conserve energy resources like electricity, fuel and gas.
