Our committment to social and enviromental issues is solid. 

Daily working practices naturally include consideration to these areas and we continually improve our outlook on the matter, an open door policy means that interally we welcome and apply suggestions from the workforce when ever possible. We like to encourage suppliers and customers alike to glean from this ethos and apply these practices wherever possible.

To this end if you require further information or any assistantce please feel free to contact our QMS Manager Helen Richards via email at: helen@sfmtechnology.co.uk.
