We have been surprised at the speed and demand for change from the plastic option to cardboard, paper based biodegradable products. Team fc have attained and retained a carbon neutral status for 12 years now and understand that we must all work towards a position where we only use paper based materials, which can be recycled in any paper waste stream, or can degrade in compost or landfill conditions, back to natural fibres without any harm to the environment or If it ends up in our oceans, it will harmlessly break down to natural fibres. There are materials available that satisfy this requirement!
We provide all of this within our brand new 36,000 sq.ft. Production Hub and in a ‘BRC AA grade’ environment which ensures we achieve the most efficient and highest quality of finishing, together with exacting standards of hygiene and environmental care.
Managing Director David Woodyatt commented
“Our ultimate challenge is to find ways our finishing can produce solutions which we are told are not possible within the equipment’s capability”
