SWANSEA, WALES, January 13, 2011 (Press-News.org) In the era of ever more severe climate change, it is becoming essential that we take our environmental responsibilities ever more seriously. Swansea company Eco Trans is demonstrating that it truly believes in its basic ethos by contributing a substantial prize to the Rushlight Awards. The Rushlight Awards are honours which are bestowed upon companies whose achievements or innovations are of direct environmental benefit. There are nearly three dozen categories spanning all types of ecologically significant contributions, plus the big prize, the Overall Award, which is presented to the most impressive sub-category winner. Prizes on offer range from consultancy and IT services to accountancy and marketing assistance, and Eco Trans has also introduced its own prize.
The winner of one category will be invited to take advantage of the Eco Trans prize of a free translation of any description involving any language combination. The translation, whether it be technical, legal, environmental or indeed any type of translation, will be approximately 10,000 words worth in the region of GBP1,000 and is expected to be a very popular prize. Eco Trans will then utilise their extensive network of language professionals to meet the requirements of the award winner before returning a high-quality translation to the victor.
Eco Trans was founded by Roy Allkin and Anna Bastek to provide a full range of language services within the green sector of the economy. It also leads by example as a green company itself, aiming to become carbon neutral by 2013 and it has implemented environmental standard ISO 14001. This is proof that it is possible to operate a highly successful company whilst at the same time reducing the environmental impact of commerce on the planet. It now has many clients within the renewable energy and environmental sectors who are very aware that they are getting top-quality language services whilst simultaneously helping the environment which they care passionately about, a combination which is somewhat rare.
Director Anna Bastek said of the Eco Trans prize: "We are delighted to be involved in the Rushlight Awards project which encourages companies to innovate in order to help the environment. Eco Trans translation prize will help green companies become ever greener possibly by helping the company to promote their innovative products and services to new international markets."
