Environmental Policy
_

​Overview

Boarway Care Ltd, trading as Interdental Centre (“IC”) strives to be a leader in environmental sustainability and believes that a prosperous future for our dental practice and the patients we serve depends on the sustainability of the environment, communities and economies we operate.

As responsible corporate citizens, we are responsible for considering the impacts of our actions and how they affect the environment both directly in terms of our operations and indirectly through our purchasing decisions, the products and services we offer to our patients and the business opportunities pursue.

We are committed to minimising the impact of our operations on the environment and demonstrating leadership by integrating environmental considerations into all our business practices.

​

Scope

The requirements of this policy apply to all dentists and employees of IC. Although this policy applies to all dentists and employees, the primary audience for this policy is those responsible for its implementation, namely the practice manager and senior management.​
