More specifically, as a Software Consultancy, Axia is committed to: • Reducing the use of paper. • Minimising unnecessary printing. • Recycling waste items such as toner / ink cartridges, paper and cardboard etc. • Providing downloadable versions of our products for customers. • Encouraging the use of public transport instead of using cars for business travel (subject to Covid-19 restrictions and safety), or wherever possible, communicating electronically eg by telephone / email rather than with face-to-face meetings. • Reducing the use of electricity eg by ensuring unused equipment is turned off when not being used and identifying practices that reduce power consumption. • Choosing energy-saving IT equipment (when replacing or purchasing new equipment) that has been manufactured in an environmentally sound way. • Disposing of old hardware responsibly - ideally being reused / reconditioned or if not, being recycled.
