Environmental Policy
Environmental Standards- ISO 14001
Beyondly Global Ltd is proud to have a certified ISO 14001 Environmental Management System. As part of our commitment to the environment we regularly review our activities and their potential for impact on the environment. We assess our significant environmental aspects and communicate them to interested parties. We have identified these to be as follows;
- Hazardous Waste Disposal: We store, record and dispose of waste through approved processors of hazardous waste.
- Compliance services – Beyondly Global ensure that all reprocessors and AATFs are approved by the Environment Agency for all Packaging, WEEE and Batteries services. In doing so we make sure members remain compliant with environmental legislation and minimise the risk of environmental degradation. All other areas of consultancy are completed to the standards outlined in the relevant legislation.
- Disposal of waste: we segregate and record waste in the following categories; general waste, mixed paper and card, mixed metals, glass and plastics.
- Use of electricity: Heating onsite is run using a ground sourced heat pump in conjunction with a 100% renewable energy contract. We monitor and set targets on our electricity consumption in our annual carbon footprint report.
- Office Maintenance: We attempt to avoid pollution or release of chemicals through implementing our environmental policy and using environmentally friendly products where possible.
- Consultancy and auditing: Emissions from travelling to the site of a member - What we do: Ensure travel by train if feasible.

Better Business Act
We joined the Better Business Act coalition in 2022 because we believe the world needs every business at its best - creating good jobs, helping to fix pressing problems and adding value to society. This aligns with our company vision of creating a better, fairer, sustainable world for all.
Beyondly is joining hundreds of businesses calling for a straightforward legislative solution. The campaign seeks to amend Section 172 of the Companies Act, to ensure that company directors are responsible for advancing the interests of shareholders alongside those of wider society and the environment.
Our company is encouraged by the fact that the Better Business Act is a business-led campaign, driven by leaders who recognise that the law has fallen behind business culture and who have proven that this approach to business works for everyone.
We encourage other businesses to join the collation and become a supporter of the Better Business Act to help move this campaign forward. Its as simple as completing this form.
We believe that the Better Business Act is a unique opportunity to demonstrate UK leadership on the global stage – creating a competitive advantage, driving innovation, accelerating progress to net zero, and aligning with the government’s ambition to build back better.
