As one of the leading sales and distributing companies for the procurement and distribution of golfing equipment and accessories, iCart seeks to maximise modern technologies which are clearly deemed to promote and protect the efficient use of the world's resources without detriment to its inhabitants.

iCart recognises that in our day-to-day operations we inevitably have an impact on the environment in a number of ways and we wish to minimise the potentially harmful effects of such activity wherever and whenever possible. As part of our continuing drive for quality in all the things we do, we have produced this policy statement.

This will enable us to focus our efforts towards sustainable environmental improvement that can be measured and monitored on a continual basis. In this way we aim to protect the health and safety of our employees and our customers whilst contributing to the future well being of the environment.

We have undertaken to help every employee to understand and implement the relevant aspects of this policy in their day-to-day work through the regular communication of objectives, action plans and achievements. Our Managing Director has accepted specific responsibility for policy development and authorised a senior Director of the company to co-ordinate and evaluate the performance of our environmental programme.

• Meet and where appropriate exceed the requirements of current and future relevant legislation;
• Seek to reduce consumption of materials in all operations, reuse rather than dispose whenever possible and promote recycling and the use of recycled materials in our activities;
• Design energy efficiency into processes, services, buildings and manage energy wisely in all our operations;
• Reduce where practical the level of harmful emissions;
• Market products that are safe to use, are fit for purpose and conform to all applicable environmental and other legislation;
• Work with and monitor our suppliers to minimise the impact of their operations on the environment through our quality purchasing policy which includes related human rights, moral and ethical issues relative to the country in which they operate;
• Support through our quality programme the promotion of environmental protection;
• Include environmental issues in programmed meetings i.e. management reviews, discussions with our customers and suppliers, our training programmes and employee groups and encourage the implementation of sound environmental practices with all interested parties;
• Monitor environmental performance.

This environmental policy is communicated at all levels within iCart and confirms the commitment of our Directors, Managers and Employees to our environmental programme of continuous improvement.
