Drifters Restaurant Environmental Policy
At Drifters Restaurant, we are committed to reducing our environmental impact and contributing to a sustainable future. We understand that our business activities have an effect on the environment, and we strive to minimise these impacts through responsible practices.
Our Commitments:
Sourcing Local and Sustainable Ingredients We prioritise sourcing fresh, local produce wherever possible, supporting Jersey’s farmers and fisheries. We aim to use seasonal and sustainable ingredients to reduce the environmental footprint of our supply chain.
Waste Reduction We actively work to minimise waste within the restaurant. This includes reducing food waste through careful menu planning, offering smaller portion options, and composting food scraps where appropriate. We also reduce packaging waste by selecting suppliers who use eco-friendly packaging.
Recycling and Reuse We recycle all paper, cardboard, glass, plastic, and metal used in the restaurant. Our team is trained to separate waste correctly to maximise recycling efforts. We also reuse materials where possible to reduce our reliance on single-use items.
Energy Efficiency At Drifters, we are committed to reducing our energy consumption. We have implemented energy-saving measures, such as using energy-efficient lighting, regularly maintaining our equipment to ensure it operates efficiently, and encouraging staff to be mindful of energy use.
Water Conservation We aim to conserve water by monitoring our water usage and implementing water-saving practices across our operations. This includes regular checks for leaks and ensuring our dishwashing and cleaning processes are efficient and eco-friendly.
Sustainable Cleaning Products We use environmentally friendly cleaning products throughout the restaurant to reduce the release of harmful chemicals into the environment. All products used are non-toxic, biodegradable, and chosen for their minimal environmental impact.
Community Engagement Drifters is proud to engage with our local community in environmental initiatives. We support local conservation efforts and encourage our customers and staff to participate in environmental awareness activities.
Continuous Improvement Our environmental policy is regularly reviewed to ensure it stays up to date with best practices and regulatory requirements. We are committed to continuously improving our environmental performance and welcome feedback from our staff, customers, and suppliers to help us in this journey.
By dining with us, you are supporting our efforts to operate as an environmentally responsible business. Thank you for helping us reduce our impact on the planet.
