Focal Point are committed to providing a quality service in a manner that ensures a safe and healthy workplace for our employees and our associate team and minimises our potential impact on the environment. We operate in compliance with all relevant environmental legislation and we will strive to use pollution prevention and environmental best practices in all we do and encourage our business partners and associates to do the same.
Specifically we

- Use local suppliers, wherever possible
