The road to sustainability

Each day, phs Washroom Service Technicians undertake 20,000 service visits to our customers’ sites in UK, Ireland and Spain to perform essential hygiene services. Our fleet uses environmentally cleaner washroom service vehicles, including electric vehicles, with all company vehicles meeting Euro VI emissions standards. 

Reducing packaging waste

From our class leading ‘paper wrapped in paper’approach (eliminating plastic use and focusing on recycled FSC accredited and sustainable material sources) to utilising bamboo or sugar cane materials in our paper products, we are delivering cost effective and sustainable solutions to our customers.

Reducing packaging waste

Where possible, phs will strongly advocate the use of concentrate chemicals as a safe and effective method to reduce the number of containers and single use plastic, with the use of reusable trigger spray bottles. 

phs only use single use packages in outer packaging and pallet wrap. We have taken steps within our supply chain to specify that these are only to be LDPE (Low Density Polyethylene) which is categorised as code 4 plastic. This means that this plastic can be recycled both commercially and domestically but is also considered less toxic than other types of plastics.  

Within our polythene category, we are working to ensure our bags are compliant and free of plastic tax i.e., contain a minimum of 70% recycled material.

We replace plastic containers with cardboard alternatives whenever possible.

Chemical products will be packaged in 80% recyclable plastic as part of our plastic management pledge and in general, any 750ml, 1 litre or 5 litre plastic containers are placed in a secure outer case packaging which is recycled cardboard.
