Local Business in Final of Welsh Environmental Award

Elite Garden Services, who are based in Bridgend, have announced an achievement in reaching the final of this years’ Environmental Awards of Wales in the category of ‘Waste Management Best Practice Award for Companies with Less than 50 Employees’.

This award comes from Elite Garden Services continued hard work and commitment to improving the environmental standards that the company require. This achievement, which is set up in conjunction the ‘The Environment Agency Wales’ and ‘Arena Network’, has been assisted by also achieving the Green Dragon Environmental Standard level 2.

Commenting, Vince Jordan, Proprietor of Elite Garden Services said: “I am delighted with this achievement and hope that we continue our hard work which will help us to continually improve on our previous efforts.” This achievement allows the organisation offer our customers a better environmental service, at a reduced cost as recycling waste diminishes our overheads.

This has been achieved by implementing many key changes in management of garden waste. Some of the key elements of the changeover have been through the use of new and efficient tools including the use of mulching mowers, the use of a wood chipper which converts waste into a useful eco-friendly end product which can be used for ground cover or animal bedding. Also EGS has allowed heavy expenditure on new machinery that produces low emissions into the environment.
