Case Study
Rave Creativewww.ravecreative.co.uk

• Rave Creative Ltd - professional, friendly,
  graphic design and print service (started 3 yrs
  ago).
• Client base growing rapidly with customers from
  across the region
• Phil initially worked independently then took on
  two members of staff. Dan took up the challenge
  of implementing an Environmental Management
  System for the business.
• The Environmental Management Systems (EMS)
  programme is an effective way of demonstrating
  green credentials when bidding for Work.
• Dan thoroughly enjoyed the course and has taken
  the initiative in the workplace by implementing
  changes such as looking at options for
  eco-friendly paper, programming machines to be
  turned on and off at set times and using energy
  efficient light bulbs.
• As a result of completing this programme, and
  tendering for new contracts, the annual impact to
  the company from EMS is predicted as being around
  150K (43 increase in planned sales)
