NEW NAME, NEW CATALOGUE - WNW

WNW was established in the public sector, within the North Wales and North West region. Having this background we understand the needs of educational establishments and have combined this with our commercial experience. Our new catalogue has 2000 new products, a local distribution service and has been benchmarked to be cheaper than existing suppliers in your area. We have a proud pedigree of working in partnership with public, private and not-for-profit organisations. This provides us with a clear understanding of the pressures and challenges you are facing. For example, we are able to use our purchasing power to offer you best value with exceptional prices for thousands of products - without compromising on quality.

Product Codes

You will notice that the new catalogue has new product codes throughout, within the printed catalogue stock products are printed in black and products delivered direct from our manufacturers printed in blue. A comprehensive and index and summary of prices, (detailing product codes with their page number and price) makes finding the product you require even easier.

Quality & Service

Despite adding new sections and thousands of new products in our 2007/8 catalogue, we have not compromised on quality. Our team of product experts have long established relationships with hundreds of suppliers across the UK and worldwide. We keep up to date with trends and new developments – as well as recognising the changing needs and requirements of our customers. This means we act as a knowledge hub to hunt out suitable products for customers – and also bring new ideas to their attention. At the same time, we are proud to offer a number of popular classics and a good choice of suppliers of both value and brand products. We take great care in choosing products for our catalogue. This means ensuring they are durable and fit for their purpose. Top of our list is safety and we look out for quality standards from our wide range of suppliers. Another factor on our shopping list is to look at the environmental credentials of both suppliers and the products they offer. We believe that wherever possible, we should reduce our impact on the environment and help our clients who share similar values.

Over the past year we have worked closely with our suppliers to highlight products that are environmentally benign or offer environmental advantages over standard products. The recycled logo featured throughout our catalogue identifies products that contain recycled material.

Environment CARING FOR THE ENVIRONMENT...REDUCING...RE-USING...RECYCLING Findel Education is committed to conserving the quality of the environment for its customers, employees and the general community - and to the continual improvement of its environmental performance. Our initiatives include: the careful planning of deliveries to reduce delivery fleet fuel consumption and exhaust emissions the specific use of low sulphur fuel for the delivery fleet recycling of waste paper, card and printer cartridges promotion of products that minimise environmental effects during production, use and disposal the selection of suppliers who have committed themselves to sound environmental strategies The Challenge On average, each household in the UK produces about 1 tonne of rubbish each year – totalling some 27 million tonnes nationwide. (Packaging alone comprises a quarter of all the rubbish placed in the bins). Over 80% of household waste can be recycled, reused or composted, but currently only around 27% is, with the rest either being incinerated or landfilled! (This puts us a long way behind many of our European neighbours who recycle well over 50% of their domestic waste). Europe has set UK industry the target of recovering 60% of all its packaging waste (approx. 5.5 million tonnes) by 2008. Clearly we all have an important role to play in reducing waste. What You Can Do Wherever possible, try to reduce the amount of rubbish created. The most efficient form of recycling is simply to re-use packaging material such as cartons, boxes, bubble-wrap and other protective packaging. Where that isn’t feasible, then plan to recycle your waste materials. This will call for the separation of waste into basic materials e.g. paper, card, glass, cans. Many local authorities now arrange kerbside collections for card and paper and provide community recycling banks for glass and steel/aluminium cans. There are now over 20,000 bottle bank sites in the UK resulting in some 425,000 tonnes of glass being recycled annually. (Contact your local authority’s recycling officer for details of local recycling services).
