Looking to build a career with a company that's committed to strong sustainability practices?
Did you know that as part of Colt's 30th anniversary celebrations last year, the company purchased 5,300 re-useable Ocean Bottles as gifts to its 'Colties'.
Actively reducing plastic pollution
Ocean Bottle is a reusable bottle company who are actively reducing plastic pollution. Every time an Ocean Bottle is purchased, 11.4kg of plastic is collected globally, in coastal areas where plastic pollution is worst.
Sadly, it's estimated that eight million new pieces of plastic are dumped into the ocean each day.
Plastic pollution has devastating effects - it can alter habitats and natural processes, and it kills more than one million marine animals every year. This number is likely to be much higher as it only includes deaths that have been witnessed.
Working with environmentally sustainable suppliers
At Colt sustainability is always front of mind, but we know there’s a long way to go.
Making decisions like contributing to Ocean Bottle demonstrates how important it is for the company to work with suppliers who are environmentally sustainable and ethical.
Colt's Sustainability Report highlights many ongoing initiatives at Colt and shows the progress made against its ambitious Environmental, Sustainability & Governance (ESG) targets.
Zero waste action plan
Some of Colt's achievements include decreasing its total waste generated by 24 per cent in comparison to 2021, and implementing a zero waste action plan for its UK headquarters, Colt House. This includes decisions such switching to recyclable paper, reusing equipment, and eliminating single-use plastics in all kitchenettes.
