Environment

Nature is the most precious resource we have. CASH is dedicated to keeping the environmental impact of our operations to a minimum, balancing business needs with conservation. As a total caring organisation, we are pro-actively committed to sustaining the natural world.

Participation

  • CASH Group participated in "Earth Hour".
  • We visited the landfill, enabling employees to further understand the waste disposal process.
  • We signed the Hong Kong General Chamber of Commerce's Clean Air Charter to reduce emissions and create cleaner air. We acted on the Chamber's 7-7-7 Care-for-Air Guidelines for the public and called on our staff to take practical steps to contribute to improving air quality at home, at work, and while travelling.
  • We have engaged in many different governmental environmental protection campaigns, including Green Office Education, Smoke-free Office Campaign, Green Day and Action Blue Sky.
  • We signed WWF’s pledge of “Knock Plastic out of the Ocean” to promise to reduce our use of single-use plastic items such as plastic cutlery and plastic bags. We also promoted the pledge to our staff members for their active participation.

Our Business

  • CFSG joined Friends of the Earth's Green Christmas Campaign to promote the use of e-cards when sending greetings to business partners and customers to save paper.
  • We encourage reduced paper consumption by offering shareholders choices to consent to receiving corporate communications materials by electronic means.
  • CFSG is also encouraging customers to use e-statements on our online portal in order to save paper.

Our Office

  • Video-conferencing systems have been installed in offices to reduce travel and as a result cause less pollution.
  • CASH use environmentally friendly packaging for mooncakes. This promotes simple packaging to reduce waste and use of non-degradable cutlery.
  • We collect recyclable toner cartridges, ink-jet bottles and paper. These materials are then sent to recycling agents for further processing.
  • We use paper made from PEFC Certified and FSC (C013067)certified plantations to help minimise chopping of natural forests.
  • Air-conditioners are set to a comfortable temperature to save energy consumption and alleviate the greenhouse effect.
