Living Wage Supplier

Sustainability & ESG go hand in hand, and looking after the people is paramount, and businesses that are ethical and socially responsible should be rewarded and living wage employers are key to this.

Renewable Power in Manufacturing Process

Generating power from renewable sources for the manufacturing process is one of the key factors in creating a long term sustainable future, we measure and reward this sustainable behaviour.

Region of Manufacture

Transport costs are a major contributor to a products carbon footprint, buying locally is buying sustainably, so we record where the product is made and categorise it as UK, Europe & Rest of World.

Main Material Recycled Content

Recycled content can help protect our natural resources as well as assist in avoiding landfill and ocean pollution, so we evaluate and reward products that include it in their main materials.

Biodegradable

Biodegradable products are a key component in sustainability, they help avoid long term landfill, the rise of plant based materials combine usability with nature, for a cleaner & greener environment.

Compostable

Compostable products fall in to 2 tiers, low heat at home and high heat industrial, we reward both but aim for low heat which allows products to safely return to nature while reducing landfill.

Packaging

How we pack our goods is half the battle, we recognise products that come in recycled and easily recyclable packaging, another place to help cut out unnecessary plastic.
