Improve your janitorial supplies

 

Buckinghamshire businesses know that there’s really no excuse for old, tired washroom facilities. Users have high standards and won’t be slow to complain if toilet roll dispensers are faulty or damaged, or if other washroom equipment is out of order.

Not only do we supply and fit a wide range of janitorial and washroom equipment, we also offer a regular maintenance service. This gives you the peace of mind you need when it comes to your staff and anyone who visits your building.

 

Keeping up with the legislation

 

We know it’s difficult for businesses to keep up-to-date with the vast amount of legislation that comes their way. You need to be aware, however, that there are laws that deal with washroom facilities and other common areas of your business. These are mostly covered by The Workplace (Health and Safety) Regulations 1992 and you should know what your responsibilities are in this area. The best way to do this is to hire a company that’s dedicated to janitorial supplies. Buckinghamshire companies choose Chiltern Hygiene to help make sure that they are meeting these requirements and that their facilities are in good order at all times.

Organic Food Delivery: Organic Reasons

  • Posted on February 23, 2012 at 2:42 pm

Are you thinking of changing over to organically farmed food? Let us show you the reasons why you should make the switch and buy organic food from our shop or order our award-winning trout, which we can deliver to your doorstep.

 

Are you worried about the affects of eating conventionally farmed food? If so, you are not alone. Surveys show that organic food trade is on the increase as more and more people realise the benefits they will reap from changing to organic food. Why not have a look below at some our reasons why you too should make that switch.

 

Some of the top reasons why you would benefit from eating organic

 

  • Conventionally farmed food is packed full of poisonous chemicals. An apple, for example, normally has up to 30 artificial poisons on its skin, and that is AFTER you have washed it. Organic food is pesticide-free and so that means no pesticide poisoning for those who are eating it.

 

  • All organic food must adhere to strict organic regulations and the producers are subject to frequent and random regulations.

 

  • In general organic food contains up to 50% more vitamins, minerals and cancer-fighting antioxidants than conventionally farmed food. This means that when you eat organic food you are benefiting from all these extra vitamins and minerals.

 

  • Organic food is prohibited from using genetically modified crop and seed. If you take into account that the affect on humans of the GM food consumption is currently unknown this is a very persuasive deciding factor for many consumers.

 

  • All the organically farmed animals are humanely treated and not pumped full of a cocktail of drugs like their conventionally farmed counterparts. This means that when you eat organic meat you can be rest assured that you are not consuming these potentially dangerous drugs.

 

  • You won’t need to worry about BSC when you eat organic food because there is no reported case of BSC in organic cattle.

 

  • Many people simply go crazy for the taste of organic produce, a few top chefs among them.

 

  • Organic farming is generally better for the environment than intensive farming and supports beautiful and diverse wildlife. http://www.organicfood.co.uk/

 

Organic Food Delivery: Organic Fish

  • Posted on February 23, 2012 at 2:40 pm

The aquaculture sector is one of the fastest growing segments in international food markets and organic fish produce forms an important part of this sector. Surveys suggest that, in the same way as organic food, the demand for organic fish, is on the increase and at Purely Organic we are proud that our award-winning trout are available online to order for delivery. So, what is organic fish farming and how do we adhere to the regulated fish farming standards?

 

The term “organic” can, by law, only be used by producers who are approved, monitored and registered by an organic certification bodies which are regulated by the United Kingdom of Organic Food Standards (UKROFS) or EU equivalents. A part of the accreditation process requires that the organic produce is monitored to check that it is being farmed appropriately to the organic standards. Unfortunately this means that all fish caught in the wild cannot be marketed as “organic” and it impossible to monitor the conditions in which it has lived. In fact, organic fish farming is the approved method for producing organic fish.

 

The main features involved in organic fish farming are as follows:

 

  • The pesticides and chemicals involved in conventional fish farming are prohibited
  • Aquatic ecosystems are maintained
  • The fish are not fed with food with ingredients containing artificial colour or genetically modified organisms
  • The farm should promote a good use of local good and services

 

Why you would benefit from buying organic trout
All of the systems which are mentioned above ensure that we sell top quality trout which is free from all artificial pesticides. This means that the trout tastes better, it provides you with a fantastic source of protein and omega three and you won’t be eating any of those nasty chemicals. Another great benefit is that you can buy the value-added products such as Trout Pâté and Cream. Many event and outside catering firms now insist on organic fish, and so should you.

Coffee machines and fair trade

  • Posted on February 22, 2012 at 10:30 am

 

 

 People are increasingly concerned about the manner in which the beans they put into their coffee machines are produced. To find out more about fairtrade visit: http://www.fairtrade.org.uk/

 

The ethical conundrum

 

Consumers today are faced with something of a balancing act whenever they go shopping; on the one hand they want a quality product at the best possible price, on the other they want to feel as if they are acting ethically and are increasingly shying away from products they feel and damaging to people or the environment. In short consumers are becoming fussier about what they put in their coffee machine.

 

What is fair trade?

 

According to the main fair trade associations the following is an accurate definition of ‘fair trade’

 

‘Fair trade is a trading partnership, based on dialogue, transparency and respect, which seeks greater equity in international trade. It contributes to sustainable development by offering better trading conditions to, and securing the rights of, marginalized producers and workers – especially in the South. Fair trade organizations, backed by consumers, are engaged actively in supporting producers, awareness raising and in campaigning for changes in the rules and practice of conventional international trade.’

 

The practice of fair trade is especially prevalent for coffee producing nations who more often than not rely on the crop for a high percentage of their gross domestic product.

 

Varieties

 

Does choosing to buy fair trade limit the options you have when choosing what to put in your coffee machine? Of course not, you can now purchase dozens of different blends at a variety of outlets all with fair trade assurances.

 

Quality

 

By choosing to buy fair-trade you could actually be helping to improve the quality of coffee in your cup. The additional income the farmers receive means they can invest in equipment and infrastructure; which in the long run means a higher quality product.

 

Making the most of it

 

To make the most of your fair-trade coffee you need the right equipment. If your customers are discerning enough to demand quality fair trade coffee and pay a premium price for it they will surely want a properly prepared espresso. Therefore, making sure you have a quality coffee machine is vitally important.
