Why is Sustainability Important?
Environmental Protection
Sustainable practices help protect natural resources, reduce pollution, and preserve biodiversity, ensuring a healthy planet for all living beings.
Social Equity
Sustainability promotes social justice by addressing issues like poverty, inequality, and access to resources, fostering inclusive communities where everyone can thrive.
Economic Prosperity
Sustainable business practices not only minimise costs by reducing waste and energy consumption but also open up opportunities for innovation, job creation and long-term economic growth.
We understand that becoming a truly sustainable business is a journey. Below are the steps we have taken so far.
CSR Accreditation
In 2023, IMS gained a Silver CSR Accreditation. The accreditation is a global scheme and is judged against four pillars; environment, workplace, philanthropy and community. It is an independent validation that shows that you are taking the steps to become a sustainable and ethical business.

Calculating our carbon footprint
With the help of the Net Zero team at Buckinghamshire Business First, we calculated our current carbon footprint and now have an action plan for improving emissions and for offsetting the annual surplus.
