A green approach to paper
Our environmental paper supply credentials are more than just lip service.
We practice environmental paper supply on all levels and always optimise our systems and processes for a sustainable paper industry. From sourcing and manufacturing to supply, we aim to lead the industry as paper specialists, but we want to do so with the environment at the forefront of our minds.
Energy-efficient paper services
Outside of our eco-friendly paper products and sources, we have made the extra effort to ensure all our services follow suit.
We have made sure our confidential document shredding is a closed-loop service. That means the lifecycle of your paperwork is environmentally friendly from start to finish and recycled to be used again. Our delivery drivers also transport shredded material on the outbound journey to reduce our carbon footprint.
Sustainable business model
From the top down, we’ve built our operation around environmentally-friendly practices. More than providing eco-friendly paper and brands, we take conscious steps as a supply company to make ourselves accountable.
Here are some of the things we’ve implemented to reduce our impact on the environment:
Reducing our impact
- Reducing electricity and fuel consumption annually
- Improving environmental builds through the IYRE scheme
- Slashing our landfill waste impact by 50%
- Maximizing waste recycling with new bailing machinery
- Reducing our carbon footprint through our own delivery fleet
- New tracking systems help us to monitor speeds & fuel usage.
Looking to the future
We believe in making our industry as sustainable as possible. Naturally, that involves the present but also the future. We have plans to make our business even greener.
With the expansion of our new facility, we will have the resources and space for electric vehicles in the future. We have installed four electric charging bays in our car park. In future, our delivery drivers will be able to reduce their carbon emissions even more.
Going forward, we will also continue to choose only the greenest paper manufacturers.

I just wanted to write to say thank you for sorting the paper delivery so quickly. We were really impressed with the fantastic service on delivery and just wanted to let you know how great the customer experience has been so far…and that has nothing to do with the added bonus of biscuits but thank you for those too!!

Excellent service. My husband has recently retired due to old age and very ill health. We had a lot of confidential waste to get rid of. I started to phone around and this was proving to be more difficult than I thought. Then I rang Springfield, they were great so understanding and very helpful. The two chaps duly turned up as arranged. Nothing was too much trouble, they worked so hard and took all of the waste away. I would thoroughly recommend Springfield.

With over 10 years relationship with Springfield I am still amazed at their commitment to giving value for money. Their friendly service cannot be faulted and the personal touch when contacting them, rather than an automated response is something other companies should take note of.

Springfield was great to deal with when i asked them to destroy confidential paperwork from my dental practice, including out-of-date patient records. Sales director Roland has been very responsive to my queries, and staff that came to collect the paper were most helpful in loading the boxes into their van. Collections have always been arranged quickly, within a couple of days.

I have been ordering from Springfield for the last 12 years. They have always been friendly and helpful and deliver a service with the utmost speed and efficiency. Even in emergencies, they have supplied us with our paper and stationery within 24 hours. The service is always very courteous from management through to the delivery staff. I would highly recommend this company and also congratulate them on 2017 being their 40th Anniversary. Roll on the next 40 years Springfield.
