Upcoming Frameworks – Highlighting Sustainability

Spotlight on sustainable LED lighting

NHS Supply Chain: Office Solutions framework Lighting Tools and Facilities Management Consumables launches this May 2021. We are working with a wide range of large suppliers who specialise in Lighting, Tools and Facilities Management.

Our new framework will offer trusts the chance to make more sustainable purchases such as LED lighting. LED lights use less energy than a traditional light bulb and last much longer, this will have a positive impact on our environment and help trusts working towards Net Zero Targets.

We will also offer a wide range of facilities consumables under a bespoke agreement. Allowing preferential pricing and an expanded supplier base in this category area. They will bring their product knowledge expertise, along with new and innovated products.  

Our new framework will offer trusts, especially customers in estates and facilities a compliant route to market to purchase items such as tools, storage, pathway maintenance and winter proofing.  Products will be available via our stocked blue diamond and direct routes, which will provide quick and easy access for trusts to purchase all their ad hoc, bespoke and specialist purchases.

Re-upholstering our way towards a more circular economy

Through our existing frameworks we can help you with reusing and re-upholstering your old furniture giving it an extended life. Not only does a circular economy save money for trusts by giving furniture a longer life span but has added sustainability benefits including:

• Improve the supply of raw materials
• save energy with the process of manufacturing new products
• Minimising old furniture out to landfill.

If you have any questions on how to achieve a more circular economy approach through our existing frameworks, get in touch with us to discuss this in more detail.
