Ethos

 

I love the environment I live in and I take being eco-friendly seriously. It’s important to reduce deforestation, pollution and the overall poor management of natural resources; to stop the ever-growing mounds of non-biodegradable waste on our earth, and acres of rubbish in our seas. One only has to take a quick look at the beautiful English countryside to realise it looks better without man-made additions.

 

That's why all packaging components are recyclable, re-usable or biodegradable. I'm always on the lookout for processes, suppliers and materials to help reduce the environmental impact.
