Sustainability Policy
Our vision is underpinned by a commitment to sustainability, economic and cultural well-being and environmental improvement.
We recognise that our activities have environmental and social impacts. It is our aim to minimise our negative impacts and to have a positive impact wherever we can.
To achieve this we will:
- Continually work on our supply chain to ensure that our suppliers are as sustainable as possible, are ‘UK first’ and follow their own sustainable policies
- Continually improve energy efficiency and reduce carbon emissions
- Protect the environment by preventing pollution and by minimising the use of natural resources and the production of waste
- Promote the use of sustainable modes of transport
- Continually improve sustainable purchasing practices
- Promote sustainability awareness and practice amongst all staff
- Comply fully with all relevant environmental legislation, regulations and agreements
- Engage with other institutions and the wider community to share environmental best practice and to demonstrate environmental responsibility
- Carry out our business practices in a way that is sensitive to our neighbours and interested parties
Our Products
As a proudly British company, we will continue to create as much as we can within Britain through our production and ingredient selection.
We use high-quality natural and safe synthetic ingredients to produce our products and our candle wax is vegan friendly. We have never and will never test our products on animals. We are proud to create products of the highest quality and efficacy.
Our candle, diffuser, wash and lotion products are all packaged in glass which is European sourced, made with a percentage of recycled glass and is 100% recyclable.
The standard pumps on our hand & body lotion and wash range are spring-free and can be recycled in household recycling.
2024 saw the launch of our first refill products. Refills are a great step towards sustainability as they require less packaging, shipping and prolong the life of our products.
When it comes to cardboard, all product boxes are made in 100% recyclable and produced using FSC approved cardboard. All outer cartons are made from recycled cardboard and can also be recycled. We often recycle shipping boxes to prolong their life and reduce waste. We also use bio-fil to protect our products when shipping. This is made from corn starch and dissolves in water, thereby reducing landfill waste.
