About us

Everything your business needs in one place

At Active Office we're all about three things - business, productivity and how we bring them together. For almost 60 years we've been driven by these three passions that run through everything we do.

Family added value

We’re like a family, so naturally we’re friendly, approachable and always here to help. Passionate about what we do, whether it’s stationery, furniture, workwear, technology or even just answering the phone. So if you do call us, you can be sure that we’ll always find the right person for you – whatever your query. And with a growing team of over 50, there’s always an expert on hand to happily share their knowledge with you. From supplies to business technology we’ve got the awards, experience, positive reviews, so we must know a thing or two.

Knowledge

What we know. Inside Out. Office Supplies. Furniture. Workwear. Technology. Print. Business intelligence. These are the things we do, live and breathe.

Service

How we do things. People-focused. Going the extra mile. Passionate about giving people what they need. Build relationships and loyalty. Speed. On-time deliveries.

Satisfaction

What sets us apart. Our depth of understanding and guidance. Innovative and visionary sourcing. Award-winning service. The reasons people keep coming back.

 

Coverage

Responsible business

Committed to a sustainable future

With ambitious goals and action, Active Office is building a sustainable business for our customers and the planet. We are committed to sustainability and are working to better understand, track, and quantify our environmental footprint - it’s good for business, the planet, our customers, and our communities.

Areas of focus

We focus on the areas where we can have the greatest impact, which include carbon, water, waste, and ecosystems across all the work we do. Staff are encouraged to play their part and open themselves up to the benefits a responsible attitude can bring.

Plastics

Our vision is that none of our packaging, including plastics, ends up in landfill, in oceans, lakes and rivers.

We are determined to reduce our use of single-use plastics in both our own organisation as well as customer supply operations. Our commitment is that our own packaging is recyclable or reusable by 2025.

Energy

With energy consumption rising, it is important that businesses use energy more efficiently, so that less is wasted.

We implemented key initiatives on reducing energy. Recently investing in an eco-friendly smart sensor lighting system throughout and a low carbon heating and water system.

Packaging

Redesigning packaging to reduce waste and making our own-label products in more environmentally friendly ways.

In an effort to reduce waste at every step of our supply chain, we are constantly exploring ways to minimize damage to products during the transportation and delivery process.

Recycling

We are taking responsibility for materials in our operations to reduce our environmental footprint.

We introduced initiatives and services to minimizing waste, increasing recycling for our customers. Supplying on-site recycling containers for products such as batteries and toners.

Paper

Reducing paper usage and re-use plays a major role at Active Office.

With pro-active customer awareness and sustainability promotion we are enabling our customer to also reduce paper wastage with our dedicated secure paper recycling service.

Products

We know our customers are looking to make smart, sustainable choices. We are constantly working to innovate with our products and suppliers allowing us to provide customers with the information they want to make their sustainable choices easy.

Supporting our community

We are dedicated to social responsibility. We firmly believe that you only get out what you put in and that's why we like to help good causes where and when we can. To support this commitment, we work with charity and not for profit organisations where we dedicate the entire resource of the company to a chosen cause.

The Braveheart Cycling Fund

The Braveheart Fund was launched in 2003 by former British champion, Motorola professional and Giro d'Italia survivor Brian Smith. Its aim is simple: to raise the funds to allow young Scottish cyclists, be they roadies, trackies or mountain bikers, to fulfil their potential. Olympic champion Sir Chris Hoy is a committed patron and other supporters help out on a more infrequent basis and there are always opportunities for others to get involved.

 

Braveheart Thunderdrome Events

In 2011 we supported the Braveheart Fund by branding their inaugural track cycling event in conjunction with the opening of the Glasgow Cycling Venue – The Sir Chris Hoy Velodrome.

The Braveheart Thunderdrome seen riders from Team Scotland, England, Europe and a special Team Braveheart entry competing in a special demo event. We produced event programmes, Trackside advertising banners, e-marketing campaigns and also volunteered at the Braveheart Fundraising Dinner.

 

Cash For Kids

Our continual support and commitment includes making donations and taking part in the Cash For Kids annual ball by taking a table at the event and showing our support in any way we can to this fantastic charity.
