We are committed to working to the highest possible environmental standards and this is tangible reward for the effort everyone in the firm has put in.”

Over the past twelve months, greener working measures introduced by Pannone include: reducing energy consumption by 40%, recycling all paper, plastics, metals, glass, toner cartridges, batteries and IT hardware. Pannone conducted an internal environmental audit firmwide and also appointed ‘Green Champions’ in every department to see through energy saving and recycling initiatives.
 
Mr Hayes added finally, “Both existing and potential clients will be able to see that Pannone is a firm that places environmental matters extremely high on its list of priorities and we will continue to work towards even higher standards of environmental responsibility.”
