Our Sustainable Ethos
At the heart of hecom
Helping universities & colleges to operate more sustainably.
Our Planet...
Reducing our carbon footprint has been a core focus at hecom since the beginning. With over 170 solar panels powering our warehouse & digital print facilities, you can be assured that we keep operational sustainability at the heart of our proposition.
We offer all of our mailings with biodegradable, starch-based films, that are 100% home compostable certified - helping our clients promote themselves in an eco-conscious fashion.
Our commitment to reducing paper waste is displayed through our bulk prospectus mailing service. By tailoring the content of the pack that we send, to meet individual school's needs, it ensures each party receives only the prospectuses that are relevant to them.
Our People...
With 95% of our operational staff living within a two-mile radius of our Bristol HQ, we are proud to offer stable employment to the local area & community.
At the same time, our workforce brings together individuals from all corners of the planet. Whether in the field, in the office or in the warehouse - our diversity is our strength & ensures our operation is truly global.
Devoted to Higher Education, hecom have an enduring connection with local universities. Both graduates & placement students, from UWE & Bath University, are currently employed by the company.
Our Future...
With sustainability being so important to the future of our planet, it’s the youth who are leading the charge.
Colleges & universities are playing their part on a global level & hecom are dedicated to offering them a means of operating sustainably.
Let’s work together to make higher education the leading light in a truly globalised, eco-conscious world.
