We are aware that reducing our Greenhouse Gas Emissions represents significant benefits for us, our customers, suppliers and the wider community.
Our Carbon Reduction Strategic Plan covers the strategies for Flexicare ongoing commitment to the management and reduction of our business-related carbon emissions. The plan covers the baseline year information, setting clear targets for reducing Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions over key timeframes and listing our planned projects.
The changes will be achieved across the business through a combination of changes in processes and procedures, and behavioural change. We will be working with all of our employees to embrace this plan and work collaboratively to achieve the overall goal of Carbon Net Zero by 2045.
Flexicare’s vision is to be Carbon Net Zero by 2045 whilst continuing to improve the outcomes of the patients, people and communities that we serve by integrating sustainable development into every aspect of our business and operational activities.
We will achieve this through a whole-business change approach, integrating innovation across future product design, and adopting best practice in sustainable development and improvement.
In the development of this Carbon Reduction Strategic Plan, a number of key initiatives have already been initiated enabling Flexicare to demonstrate reductions in the carbon emissions generated by our activities.
Changing the leased car fleet from internal combustion engine (ICE) diesel vehicles to hybrid vehicles.
Reduction of corporate travel through the use of digital technology and communication apps & software.
Commencement of a project to install solar panels and other carbon reducing activities and technology across the Flexicare business with cost analysis and supplier selection currently underway.
Introduction of a waste reduction initiative across the business with recycling points within every department.
Launch of the “Sustainability Champions” with representatives from each department collaborating on internal employee-led initiatives to reduce carbon emissions.
Implementation of LED lights across the offices with auto off switches in permissible areas..
Reduction of inks used on product cartons.
Development of products which remove the composition of PVC.
Our Strategic Sustainability Committee is responsible for the strategic leadership, delivery, and execution of the plan. In 2023 the Strategic Sustainability Committee will be supported by a new dedicated role focused on Sustainable Change & Implementation Strategies.
The timetable for change is anticipated to have accelerated change in the first 4 years from 2023 to 2026, with integrated rolling changes taking place.
The significant impact on carbon emission reduction will be realised in its largest forms from 2025 to 2045.
