Environmental Policy

Panel Agency Limited is dedicated to sourcing timber based products from responsible suppliers and shall, working in collaboration with its suppliers and its clients, pursue an objective of sustainable development.

This objective will be pursued not only by checking the source of raw material but also, in relation to our construction projects, by seeking efficiency in raw material usage.

We are dedicated to the environment as a long term objective and will through a process of self assessment seek continual improvement.

From our suppliers we expect the following;

• The sourcing of raw material from forests practising at least sustainable yield management.
  
• Clear identification of the species of timber.
  
• The use of best available technology to minimise the harmful effects of noise pollution and discharge of pollutants into the atmosphere or water.
  
• Efficiency in energy or raw material usage.
  
  

From our clients we would like to understand how our products are being utilised and thus ensure that they are the best available solution for the given application.

We are able to offer both FSC and PEFC goods and we would refer you to the downloads section for a copy of our current Chain of Custody Certificate.

Our company is committed to the eradication of illegal timber in European markets. By implementing the Responsible Purchasing Policy and improving our supply chain we are putting that commitment into action."
"No individual company can solve the problem of illegal logging alone, it has to be a partnership effort, and our implementation of the Responsible Purchasing Policy is just that. We want to lead by example and invite the companies we trade with to become part of the solution."
"The future of forestry is too important to leave to others to decide, it impacts on everything from local jobs to climate change. Stopping illegal timber from entering our supply chain isn't going to solve all the problems but it will support crucial change and we intend to play our part by participating in the Responsible Purchasing Policy."
"If the industry doesn't sit up and take notice unsustainable forestry will affect everything from raw material supplies to stock-market value. Tackling illegal logging is one of the key acts of a sustainable industry and the Responsible Purchasing Policy is an important part of our strategy to protect the interests of our clients and shareholders."
"Following a successful review of Panel Agency Limited procedures, the TTF are able to confirm that there was compliance with the TTF's Responsible Purchasing Policy requirements during this period.

All employees of Panel Agency Limited have collaborated in the development of our environmental objectives and are dedicated to the supply of the most natural product in the world - WOOD.
