INSPIRING PEOPLE. CREATING CHANGE.
Our customers are at the heart of every decision we make, and we know taking ownership and control of our environmental and social impact is one of our shared ambitions.
Respect, Innovation, Sustainability and Empowerment (RISE) are values shared by our customers, colleagues and suppliers. By building on these principles we are creating an initiative designed to help us raise our standards, together.

HOW IT WORKS
RISE is an initiative, powered by Cubiquity and Bigkid, which brings customers, colleagues and suppliers together to address our collective impact on the environment and the communities we operate in. To do this, RISE empowers its members to work together to create a positive change; be that through volunteering and fundraising, making more sustainable choices for designs, products and logistics, or sharing ideas about how we can do better together.
OUR RESPECT COMMITMENTS
We know that by listening and working together with our colleagues, customers, and partners we multiply the impact of our individual efforts. It is only by respecting each other’s views, circumstances and challenges we create the collaborative culture needed to drive positive change.
HOW WE’RE GETTING THERE
FAIR PAY
Making sure everyone is paid fairly is one way of showing we respect our colleagues commitment and experience. This is why Cubiquity are proud to be a Living Wage Employer.
CARBON BALANCED
We all rely on the planet for our well-being and resources, which is why we’ve become a Carbon Balanced Business through the World Land Trust. Not only do we source carbon-balanced paper, we also offset the carbon emissions resulting from our travel and energy consumption.
SUPPORTING OTHERS
We are proud supporters of Beam and CALM, organisations who help others; respecting their circumstances by providing the guidance and resources they need to help them improve their own lives.
To date, we have supported 65 people back into work and 60 people into secure housing through Beam, changing lives of 123 people and created a calendar of fundraising events to help CALM (Campaign Against Living Miserably).
IN PARTNERSHIP WITH
OUR INNOVATION COMMITMENTS
There is always a better way! Which is why we’re committed to seeking out, developing, and delivering innovative solutions for our customers; to create value, reduce waste and improve the quality of products and services.
HOW WE’RE GETTING THERE
RAISING THE STANDARD
Having ISO accredited processes we know we’re starting from a strong basis, these give us the springboard to push for more innovative and better solutions.
COMMUNICATION
Innovation grows from communication and alternative perspectives. This is why we encourage our suppliers, colleagues and customers to work together to find opportunities for continuous improvement.
RISE
Working with and for an organisation with purpose is a priority for our customers and colleagues. To help us approach ESG in a new and engaging way we created RISE, bringing us together to achieve our shared ambitions.
OUR SUSTAINABILITY COMMITMENTS
We are committed to being a sustainable and responsible partner for our customers and suppliers. We look beyond short-term gains, to long term, sustainable, growth. Seeking every opportunity to eliminate waste, make more sustainable choices and consider the long term impact of our individual and shared actions.
HOW WE’RE GETTING THERE
OUR PAPER TRAIL
It’s important we know where our products are coming from which is why we work closely with our suppliers to ensure there is transparency across the supply chain, this helps us to make more sustainable choices for example working with the World Land Trust, the Woodland Trust & Carbon Footprint to use Carbon Balanced Paper.
TOWARDS NET ZERO
We have always sought to implement sustainable options and processes to help reduce our carbon emissions, we do this by working closely with suppliers and colleagues to constantly review all our solutions. And, where operational emissions cannot be eliminated, we offset them through the World Land Trust, the Woodland Trust and Carbon Footprint.
We are committed to achieving Net Zero emissions by 2050.
