Environmental Policy

Image Office Cleaning recognises that its day-to-day operations affect the environment in a number of ways and we recognise the importance of environmental protection. We are committed to operating our business responsibly and to fulfilling our compliance obligations relating to the provision of daily office cleaning, window cleaning maintenance and associated services. In line with other leading organisations, we strive to only provide products that help to protect the environment and reduce pollution. We have ISO 14001:2015 certification in place to help us manage and minimise our environmental aspects and impacts.

In summary, it is our policy to:

• Ensure environmental implications are considered when assessing client’s requirements. We use non-toxic, less hazardous cleaning products wherever possible and offer Eco-friendly consumable products. We dilute chemicals to the correct specification to minimise consumption.

environmental requirements, including client requirements, ensuring any updates are met continuously
