Finding better ways to package our products is one of our biggest challenges at the moment. Our priority is to bring you quality products at affordable prices that don’t damage the environment. One of the ways we do this is by using smarter packaging. It helps us cut back on unnecessary waste and gives you less to throw away. By reducing packaging we also save energy and carbon and money, and that helps us deliver you great products at great prices.
Slim fit. We have a team of experts working to find new and innovative packaging solutions, so that we can keep slimming our packaging right down.
The full package. We’re developing a sustainable packaging and analysis tool to make sure we’re top of the game when it comes to packaging reduction.
Pack park. We’re helping you cut your packaging waste. We’ve got recycling points in our car parks for bottles, bags, cans and glass as well as recycling points for old clothing!
We’ve reduced our packaging by 27%*. Examples such as the sensory cube which has seen a reduction in weight of 45% and a volume reduction of 66%, have helped us achieve this figure.
We are on track to achieve the goal to reduce the embedded carbon of our packaging as part of Courtauld Commitment 2.
We’re aiming for a 10% cut by 2013 in the embedded carbon of our packaging as part of the WRAP and Courtauld Commitment 2
Packaging always gets lots of attention, and that’s because it presents us with a challenge.
We want to bring you the freshest products that last for as long as possible. And packaging helps us do that. But we also want to avoid waste, so we need to reduce our packaging as much as we can. We’re working to find different options, reducing over-packaging as much as possible, while still giving you the best quality products possible.
