Nationwide Hygiene Supplies chooses bpi.recycled products

bpi.recycled products, which ranks as Europe’s largest manufacturer of refuse and recycling sacks, has been named as a preferred supplier to Nationwide Hygiene Supplies.

The decision by the leading supplier of cleaning, hygiene, safety and catering products to appoint bpi.recycled products is believed to be a direct result of its comprehensive product range, its strong environmental credentials and a long-standing trading relationship.

In addition, bpi.recycled products demonstrated its ability to tailor its range to comply with the needs of individual customers. For Nationwide, the manufacturer developed a range of bespoke printed cartons produced specifically to meet their particular commercial requirements.

It is understood that Nationwide was also impressed by the position that bpi.recycled products holds as a leading UK-based manufacturer. As well as ensuring a continuity of supply, this also offers additional green benefits in the form of reduced product miles and a lower carbon footprint.

Under the new agreement, bpi.recycled products will be supplying the business with a complete range of waste management solutions including its Green Sack® ultra-low carbon footprint, 100% recycled refuse sacks. As well as janitorial products, the manufacturer will also be supplying Nationwide with a number of specialist healthcare solutions.

Speaking of the decision, Sarah Morrell, Purchasing Manager at Nationwide Hygiene Supplies said: “As part of the tender process, we were looking to appoint a preferred supplier that is able to deliver standards of excellence across the board. bpi.recycled products answered that brief admirably.
