Where/how Altro buy

When looking at sourcing and purchasing our materials Altro always consider environmental commitment and the quality of ingredients. We help to cut our carbon footprint by reducing printing and using electronic methods of communication wherever possible. Our brochures and samples are also available to view on the website, negating the need for large print runs. Our goods are sourced from companies that are as local to us as possible, reducing our carbon footprint.

• Altro only source materials from companies or suppliers who can demonstrate their environmental commitment
• We choose high quality raw materials that can give us the best performance in our products, while minimising our impact on the environment
• We reduce our carbon footprint by utilising electronic communications
• We have reduced postage miles
• We have reduced delivery miles
• We use FSC-sourced paper
• We have a local supply chain

We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.
