A New Standard in Cleaning
These heavy-duty disposable wipes ensure a streak and lint free fnish on any surface with hexagonal embossed paper that grips dirt and grime. Available in rolls and single dispenser sheets, 3D Hex products are HACCP International certifed as a food safe product.
HACCP International Certifed it comes from either FSC®-certified forests or wood that meets the requirements of the FSC® Controlled Wood standards. These standards state that wood cannot be harvested illegally, in violation of human rights, in forests which threaten conservation efforts and in forests being converted for non-forest use. Many businesses do not partner with, or purchase stock from, companies without FSC® certification. For any company, there are a number of steps that should be taken to follow best practice around chain of custody. These include:
3D Hex wipes and wipers are HACCP International certifed meaning they are suitable for use in facilities that operate in accordance with a HACCP International based Food Safety Programme. This is an internationally recognised method of identifying and managing food safety risk.
1Administer an annual independent audit. If you buy or sell timber-derived products, an annual audit will provide a comprehensive overview of whether manufacturing is FSC® compliant or not.
2 Maintain accurate records.
It’s vital to retain an accurate paper trail of all transactions around forest-sourced products for corporate governance and compliance.
3 Conduct regular training. Every member of staff in your business needs to be well versed on chain of custody to ensure that all incoming products – and any packaging – are FSC® compliant.
Putting Social Responsibility First
It’s thought that around 18 AFL fields worth of forest are cleared every minute across the world. With stats like this, it’s clear that the conservation and renewal of forests is vital for the future health of our planet.
Bunzl has long recognised that sourcing FSC®certified products helps address this issue, and continues to put sustainability at the forefront of everything we do. Bunzl’s own exclusive brands include Pristine washroom paper, Sustain wooden and paper utensils, and Katermaster baking paper and napkins which are FSC®certified and each fully compliant with the FSC® chain of custody. This includes the materials used to package and transport these products. By leading by example, we can create a sustainable environment and raise awareness of ethical sourcing and the promotion of responsible forest management.
