Wilmslow-based document management and imaging software author, Version One, has pledged to plant over 400 trees in sustainable forests throughout the UK and in school and college grounds across the North West throughout 2012.
The trees are being planted in partnership with Tree Appeal, a charity that plants trees to promote biodiversity, create new habitats and improve the environment.
This will mark the sixth year that Version One has been planting trees as part of its green initiative, bringing the total number of trees planted since 2006 to nearly 4,000.
MD Julian Buck commented: "Our tree-planting initiative is an intrinsic part of our green agenda, which naturally lends itself to our document management software solutions.
"We pride ourselves on providing software that cuts paper use, enabling organisations to operate more efficiently whilst being environmentally responsible."
Ken Whitley, MD of Tree Appeal, said: "It's clear that being green is a core part of Version One's ethos and the company's continued dedication to planting trees demonstrates that it is green in its actions, as well as its words."
