Travis Perkins has a significant role to play in removing waste from its supply chain in order to offer customers more sustainable solutions.
Over 96% of the waste we generated across the Group in 2023 was diverted from landfill, and this year we’re working with Veolia to improve our performance further. We’re also continuing our engagement with our suppliers to ensure that they are aware of the Extended Producer Responsibilities (EPR) regulations and reviewing product packaging to ensure it’s both sustainable and optimised for the type of product. This in turn helps the product pass safely through the supply chain and avoids surplus waste materials being generated for the end user to handle and reduces the risk of product damages. |  |
| Last year we continued our backhaul operation which enabled our branches to send materials such as cardboard, plastic wrap, paper and wood to distribution centres where they are processed and sent for onward recycling. This is in addition to pallets, collars and lids which are returned and reused by the distribution centre team. |
