Looking out for the environment
Our pledge to the world
Packaging reduction and reuse is something close to our heart, and to lighten the paw prints on the environment our packaging has been carefully considered to offer the best protection to both our products and our precious planet.
We will continue working hard to grow our business whilst minimising its environmental impact.
Packaging
We are very proud to say that our raw packaging is both biodegradable and compostable. We are also able to offer a larger sized pack at 1kg as well as the industry standard 500g. Our eco pouches are crafted from a range of natural products including eucalyptus fibre, cassava and corn starch
Parcels in Transit
In transit, we use lightweight recycled and recyclable carboard boxes (though robust enough to keep the product safe), to keep the product frozen we use Sheep wool liners, they are encased in plastics, but it is fully and widely recyclable so that it can be kept in a circular economy. We offer a collection service on our wool liners.
Finally our tape is fully biodegradable, Kraft paper and inks, the gum is activated by water and its also totally biodegradable.
We use minimal single use plastic in our inhouse production.
All our leaflets are made from recycled card and even our business cards are made from recycled T-Shirts!
SafeTouch
Our raw packaging sleeves have been coated with SafeTouch™, which is designed for controlling the growth of bacteria and fungi on substrates without affecting the colour or transparency. This specialist coating inhibits the growth of bacteria by up to 99.9% over a 24-hour period and this technology can be widely used in health services to help fight superbugs including Covid-19. SafeTouch™ safely inhibits microbial growth and will last the lifespan of the sleeve.
Carbon Neutral
Many of our suppliers are carbon neutral, which is something we are working towards in consultation with the University of York to achieve within our first year.
Ellen Macarthur Foundation
We always try to apply the restorative and regenerative design set by the Ellen Macarthur Foundation for a Circular Ecconomy which is an initiative we feel passionate about and fully support.
