Better World products enable our customers to make more sustainable and responsible purchasing decisions they can trust. The range includes c. 30,000 products across 345 product families, from 132 suppliers, available in 30 countries.
We have identified sectors where we can make a tangible impact by encouraging suppliers to achieve Better World product credentials. Our first area of focus is suppliers of PPE and workwear products added to the Better World product range.
These products are essential but typically have short lifecycles. A shift towards sustainability will reduce waste and create a commercial opportunity with customers who have strong ESG commitments. So far, we have engaged 32 PPE and workwear suppliers to add 235 products to the range.
