Our Actions
- Reduce our consumption of single use plastic and PET boxes.
- Replace foam inserts with Fair Trade, cotton gift pouches.
- If there is an absolute need for plastic, we endeavour to use recyclable plastic.
- Switch to recyclable envelopes and biodegradable bubble wrap.
- Reuse old shipping cartons or responsibly recycle them.
- Use paper gummed tape instead of plastic packaging tape.
- Redesign our gift boxes to use, where possible, card that has been certified by the Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC®) and has a matte finish on printing, instead of gloss lamination to reduce our plastic use.
- Make our corrugated shipping boxes and paper fillers also FSC certified.

FSC Certified
What does FSC- Certified mean?
- Zero Deforestation - Although trees are harvested, there is no net loss of forest over time.
- Environmental protection - FSC certification requires biodiversity to be maintained, and high conversion value areas - including old growth forests – to be protected.
- Indigenous Peoples’ rights respected - FSC certification requires forest inhabitants to be consulted and engaged, and cultural rights to be maintained.
- Fair wage and work environment for workers - FSC certification requires training, safety and decent wages for all workers.
