01732 759725 BUSINESS BRIEFING 22 ECS on Buying British – What does it mean to you? goes a long way towards helping the British economy to recover, particularly after recent events. Money that you spend on British products is recirculated among the employees of the company that you bought from through their wages. The more successful British companies are, the more they can grow, the more people they can employ and the more they can pay their employees. If your money is spent overseas, the same will happen there, only this time, their British competitor will suffer as a result. It’s important to remember the knock-on effects of where your money is spent and how it can also affect you. More money within the British economy results in further investment into things that can directly affect you, including public services, National Health Services, schools and education. You might not be one for waving the flag of patriotism but buying British can also be looked at from a green perspective. The threat of global warming is hard to avoid, and its effects are seemingly irreversible, but everything must be done to halt the increasing consequences. Buying a British product can reduce air miles that your products that would otherwise have to travel from overseas. British companies are also very aware of climate change and the pressures on them to reduce packaging, particularly harmful plastic packaging. ECS only use 100% recyclable cardboard for the packaging of our own remanufactured products. Who are ECS? Effective Consumable Solutions are at the forefront of the campaign to encourage our industry to invest into British remanufactured goods and services, and that includes their own award winning British solution. Supporting the British economy is vital during times of economic hardship in order for our country to prosper once again following the detrimental impacts of coronavirus, but what should buying British mean to you? More than just a label Products that are manufactured or remanufactured in Britain or the UK will often be labelled as such, but it isn’t just for decoration – it should have a significant meaning to you as a customer. British products come with a reputation and an offering of far superior quality over other products, particularly those that are made cheaply and mass produced overseas. This superior quality comes in many forms whether it’s through function, performance or durability, but it will definitely be there. British remanufacturers are known to be among the best in the world due to the number of standards, checks and specifications that our products must pass before being able to be placed onto the market – this is again something that products from overseas do NOT have. One of these recognised standards is ISO9001, a quality management standard that ECS have achieved and continue to adhere to. Achieving ISO9001 standards means that we not only do we consistently demonstrate the ability to provide products and services which exceed our customers’ demands, but we also continuously work to improve all of our processes, systems and techniques.
