MINDFUL REMIT
WE ARE PART OF THE EARTH, WE DID NOT INHERIT IT. WE BELONG TO IT, NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND. THE EARTH HAS EVOLVED AN ECOLOGY, A SYSTEM OF REGENERATION OVER MILLIONS OF YEARS WITHOUT SPECIES DISRUPTION- UNTIL THE INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION.
BEETLES AND BACTERIA HAVE BEEN AROUND LONGER THAN US AND DINOSAURS CO EXISTED FOR HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF YEARS.
​
WE UNDERSTAND THAT MANAGING THE CLIMATE CRISIS IS A COLLECTIVE ACTION, A GLOBAL WILL THAT NEEDS MORE ACTION.
​
AS A BRAND, WE TRY TO MINIMISE OUR FOOTPRINT, HOWEVER SMALL IT IS. WE UNDERSTAND THAT BIODEGRADABILITY IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN RECYCLABILITY DUE TO THE ENERGY USED THOUGH IT IS THE NEXT BEST THING. HERE ARE THE ACTIONS WE TAKE:
PRODUCTION AND INGREDIENTS
- WE USE MINIMUM WATER TO MAKE OUR PRODUCTS AND USE CLEANING SOLUTIONS THAT ARE NOT HARMFUL TO THE WATER SUPPLY.
- WE DO NOT USE ANY PALM OIL DERIVATIVES WHICH MAY HAVE HARMED ANIMALS OR CAUSED DEFORESTATION IN THE PROCESS OF GROWING OIL PALM.
- WE DO NOT ANIMAL TEST, USE ANY INGREDIENTS THAT HAVE BEEN TESTED ON ANIMALS OR SELL IN COUNTRIES WHERE ANIMAL TESTING IS PRACTICED.
- WE RIDE AN ELECTRIC SCOOTER TO THE POST OFFICE TO DELIVER LOCALLY.
PACKAGING
- WE ARE NOW PLASTIC FREE USING ALUMINIUM AND GLASS.
- WE USE FSC CARDBOARD BOXES WHICH USES 60-90% RECYCLED MATERIAL. WE ALSO TRY TO USE THE MINIMUM BOX SIZE TO REDUCE PACKAGING MATERIALS USED.
- WE USE WATER SOLUBLE PACKAGING BEANS, RECYCLED PAPER AND PAPER TAPE- ALL WHICH ARE BIODEGRADABLE AND RECYCLABLE.
SUPPORT
- WE ENDEAVOUR TO BE PART OF, IN ADHERENCE WITH AND SUPPORT THE ORGANISATIONS THAT HAVE STRICT STANDARDS THAT UPHOLD SUSTAINABLE PRACTICES THAT BENEFIT THE EARTH AND ANIMAL LIFE.
- WE ENDEAVOUR TO NOT 'GREEN WASH' IN OUR MARKETING OF PRODUCTS.
- ENCOURAGE OUR CUSTOMERS TO REUSE OR RECYCLE CONTAINERS.
THE FUTURE
WE HOPE THAT ONE DAY, WE WILL HAVE PHYSICAL PRESENCE WITH WINDOWS AND SHELVES AND OFFER SOME OF OUR PRODUCTS IN A ZERO WASTE CAPACITY. IN THE MEANTIME, WE WILL REMAIN MINDFUL OF EVERY DECISION WE MAKE ABOUT HOW IT IMPACTS THE PLANET.
