Environment

At Sutton Tools we are environmentally conscious and sympathetic to issues that bring benefits to our environment.

We meet all legislative requirements of ISO 9001:2008 Global Accreditation which covers production controls, traceability, management, all of which are the start to the protection of our environment.


Manufacturing & Machinery Processes: Cleaner Technologies
Sutton Tools heat treatment use modern Vacuum Furnaces with electronic cycle control operations with a much cleaner technology than the traditional salt bath furnace process.

Modern CNC; machines of which some are purpose built within the company give pick and place operation, robot handling functions, that not only give repeatable quality operations but a safer work place environment.

With well managed structured systems embracing all manufacturing from the floor - up and driven with a continuous improvement policy, our aim is to minimise our environmental impact. Sutton Tools will always be environmental custodians for life, endeavouring to minimise impacting factors that will reduce carbon footprints.


Tool Regrinding
Bring back to life your high quality precision cutting tools, don’t throw them out. Sutton Tools Regrinding and Resurfacing facilities return cutting tools to their original condition.

Recycle
Manufacturing bi-products at Sutton Tools is recycled on site. Oil is extracted from ground waste and reused back into the manufacturing process, and the separated swarf is removed to be recycled. Paper, cardboard, boxes etc are recycled, thereby reducing landfill and costly waste.

Old recycled news papers and shredded documents are used in our packaging, and despatched tools are further protected whilst in freight to local and overseas destinations.
