Wesco Environmental Policy:
The very nature of Wesco's business places an enormous environmental responsibility on all of our activities. The products that we handle day-in and day-out can be extremely harmful to the environment if mismanaged and allowed to escape or leak from our storage cylinders or equipment. From decommissioning clean agent suppression systems, preparing them for transport (sometimes from halfway around the world), recovering them back to their original condition, long term storage and shipping them to Critical End Users who have no alternative but to continue using halons, the management and employees possess a deep, moral commitment to protect the environment.
We also try to carry this out throughout our day to day activities here in office. Wesco is also committed to providing a quality service in a manner that ensures a safe and healthy workplace for our employees and minimises our potential impact on the environment. We will operate in compliance with all relevant environmental legislation and we will strive to use pollution prevention and environmental best practices in all we do.
