What steps and measures toward sustainability has The Spice Hunter taken in order to maintain its business with minimal long-term effect on the environment?
The Spice Hunter is committed to responsible business practices and exploring ways we can make our business more sustainable, including • corrugated and white paper products wherever possible; • recycling plastic wrap wherever possible to minimize the amount of waste sent to landfills; • actively conserving energy by shutting off computers and other appliances when not in use, and turning off lights when rooms are not occupied; • reducing the use of plastic in containers wherever possible and looking towards using fewer petroleum-based raw materials while maintaining the integrity of the products we make; • reducing our carbon footprint by using shipping and receiving options that incorporate full loads whenever possible to limit the use of fuel per load; • regularly evaluating sanitation procedures to implement proper cleaning practices to minimize chemical residues sent to municipal water systems; • constantly looking at examples of green practices as a model for our business to make
