Environment Day
FIRA has organised a half day environmental workshop in the north of England on the morning of 9 July.
With customers becoming increasingly discerning, independent proof of your organisation’s commitment to sustainable development could make the difference when it comes to future competitiveness.
This is already happening in the contract sector, and is beginning to affect the domestic market.
Under the auspices of FIRA's Club Green initiative, the event at the Wakefield Travelodge, Woolley Edge M1 South will discuss latest developments within the Furniture Industry Sustainability Programme (FISP), which enjoys support from all the main trade organisations. The event will cover how to comply with legislation and how to introduce environmental management systems.
There will also be a demonstration of FIRA's newly launched Furniture Footprinter.
This industry-specific online tool has been enthusiastically received, with a number of companies having already signed up to use it.
A full programme is available in our training section ; to book a place, please call Catherine Boyd on 01438 777700 or email .
* Free for FIRA members; £25 for non members
