Recycling and paperless solutions
Some of our departments, where the work involves lot of printed documentation already developed and successfully introduced Paperless solutions for electronic management of the working process that drastically reduced the use of printed materials. Only through digitalization of a few processes at Financial Dept 8 753 062 A4 sheets of paper were saved in 2023. By making small steps we continue our long-term initiative for digitalization and reducing the paper consumption.
The monthly edition of "Speedy Press" – the company newsletter, which for over 15 years informed the company's customers and employees about our news, events, services and projects, was printed on 100% recycled CYCLUSPRINT paper, and since 2021 the internal company newsletter is completely digital and distributed online.
In 2023, Speedy's offices were equipped with separate plastic and paper waste bins for use by our customers to facilitate recycling.
