Environmental Policies

Arrow Solutions is committed to conducting business in an ethically and socially responsible manner, as well as ensuring the effective management of environmental issues. We are focused on sustainable development in order to meet the needs of the present without compromising future generations.

One of the primary ways in which we can help our customers achieve the same objectives is by minimising their chemical usage. All Arrow products are of a high quality, with less required to complete the task compared to typical alternatives. Additionally, most of our range is provided as a concentrate to which water is added locally, saving unnecessary transport and packaging.

We have been accredited to ISO14001 since 2010. However, we have not let our efforts rest there and the following is a list of commitments implemented across our business:

Products

• We select ingredients and develop formulations to ensure safety and to optimise the sustainability of our finished product during its lifecycle
• We comply with all applicable EU Regulations to ensure that our products are safe for people and the environment
• Where possible, we offer water based products as an alternative to solvent based and provide concentrated professional products to reduce our environmental impact
• All paper-based componentry is from FSC sources
• We use recycled material wherever possible and ensure that all packaging and components are able to be recycled
• We are fully REACH compliant

• We have a permanent commitment to monitor and reduce our consumption of energy and water wherever possible
