PHIL’S PEDAL PLEDGE FOR BIKE WEEK
07 Jul 2010
Our sales and marketing director Phil Jones put his pedal power to the test last week by cycling 120 miles in support of National Bike Week.Phil took Brother’s environmental commitment to the streets by leaving the car at home and commuting from his Warrington home to work on his bike to inspire others to do the same.
As a keen amateur cyclist Phil is more used to pedalling along the winding roads and hills of Cheshire rather than the urban streets of Manchester, but jumped at the opportunity to try cycling the 60 mile round trip to and from work for the first time.
At Brother we have a long standing commitment to minimising our environmental impact and hold various awards and international standards for our environmental and ethical performance. These range from achieving the rigorous ISO14001:2004 standard for environmental management to being rated as the top company in our sector by the Ethical Company Organisation – publishers of The Good Shopping Guide. Brother has also made significant investment in the development of environmentally friendly products that use less energy, last longer, and are easy to recycle and has achieved numerous accreditations including Energy Star, Blue Angel and Nordic Swan.
