The devastating impact of the recent flooding on many communities and businesses across the UK has been widely reported.
Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands and parts of the South East being some of the most affected areas.
With such significant damage caused by the floods, it was without doubt that Banner and the wider Evo Group would organise a donation of supplies to support those in need.
Throughout this year, we’ve been working hard to reduce single-use plastics by 30% across our business by 2020.
We kicked the year off by removing plastic filler in our small pick parcels and now we’re delighted to announce four more eco-friendly improvements to our packaging and deliveries.
Banner are over the moon that a recent cost saving exercise on toilet roll resulted in one of our customers donating the money they saved to a worthy cause.

Whether the result of unauthorised access to a company laptop or the loss of sensitive paperwork, a data breach is a data breach.

By 2022, Banner aims to increase biodiversity across all of our sites. One step to meet this objective has been to open our first biodiversity garden at our Normanton site in Yorkshire.
Poor storage, failure to destroy records and information mishandling are just three ways that UK organisations have been finding themselves on the wrong side of data protection rules.
Since the GDPR was introduced in May 2018, research has found that the UK is one of the top three countries for data breaches. The UK experienced 10,600 personal data breaches of the 59,000 reported across the continent since the new law came into effect.
