Are your plastic bottles made from virgin plastic?

Our plastic tube components are made from 95% PCR (Post Consumer Recycled) plastic. Our plastic bottles are currently made with at least 10% PCR (Post Consumer Recycled) plastic.

Are your product bottles/components recyclable?
Yes, we are happy to say that our packaging is recyclable.
Plastic bottles – made from PET and HDP and are widely recycled by authorities around the UK.
Plastic pumps – made from a combination of plastics – can be recycled in component form.
Airless pumps – made from plastic and aluminium – can be recycled in component form.

Is your packaging (boxes, cartons, box filling etc) recyclable?

Yes, all product cartons and cardboard boxes we use as packaging is fully recyclable.
To pack orders we use packaging nuggets made from natural corn starch which is bio degradable and can be dissolved in water; it’s also pet safe too.

Do you use recycled paper?

Yes, we use FSC or equivalent uncoated paper for all of our product brochures and flyers and are working towards using FSC or equivalent paper for all of our paper based materials.

I’ve heard you plant a tree for every retail product sold, is this correct?

Yes, as part of our environmental initiative ‘Give Back to Nature’ we partnered with Trees for the Future, an organisation which plants trees in the developing world and works with marginalised communities to plant thousands of oxygen producing trees that protect and bring nutrients back to the soil. This helps farmers grow a variety of fruits and vegetables, gain increases in income and access to food, all while improving the environment. We made a pledge to plant a tree for every retail product sold – a minimum of 100,000 trees per year.

Do you offset carbon emissions?

Yes, as part of our environmental initiative ‘Give Back to Nature’, we plant one tree for every retail product sold. Each tree planted offsets the equivalent of 26,000 miles of car driving carbon emissions per year.
