As a responsible global company Flashbay believes that it is crucial that we show our environment the level of care and respect that it deserves. We aim to help protect the environment by preventing pollution, making continuous improvements to environmental relevant processes while abiding by laws and regulations.
Our Carbon Footprint

Manufacturer and 1st supplier of Corporate Merchandise to be registered as Carbon Neutral ®.
How did we do it?
All lighting and electrical devices (with the exception of our server) are
powered down nightly to conserve energy. Where any device has an energy saving
feature this is enabled. Wherever possible Flashbay avoids the use of
incandescent light bulbs.
Flashbay has a policy of upgrading our dated technology with newer energy
efficient models, improving both performance, energy consumption and efficiency.
Flashbay engages in recycling of both production materials and commercial
waste in all our locations worldwide.
Processing Efficiency
Flashbay shipments are batched and processed in bulk to minimise the number
of delivery trips required to move your order from our locations to your final
delivery destination.
Flashbay has chosen United Parcel Service (UPS) for shipping orders to our customers. To help reduce our carbon footprint we chose a courier who actively strives to minimise their impact on the environment (Read more about UPS and the environment)
Our Products

Our Staff
All Flashbay employees are encouraged to mirror the company's values through recycling and conserving energy.
All Flashbay employees travel to and from work using either public transport
or by walking, keeping our carbon footprint with respect to staff travel as low
as possible.
We encourage all our customers and suppliers to share our environmental
concern and implement their own policies and practices to minimise the impact
that they have on the environment.
