Yes we have. We use non-chlorinated paper supplied from sustainable forests and reduced the grammage of paper by 20% between 2006 and 2008. In 2007 we changed from 5 to 3 annual editions of our general catalogue and partnered with printers approved by “Imprim’Vert”, and in 2014 we reduced this to 2 per year.
Yes, we do. In our warehouse we constantly recycle any used packaging and reuse it where possible, reducing superfluous wastage. Since 2008, our warehouse has recycled over 880 tonnes of cardboard and plastic.
We have included logos next to our products which will help you identify those which are better for the environment and also guide you in the best way to reduce, reuse and recycle your waste. Also our sales team will be able to offer a more environmentally responsible alternative within the product range where possible.
Yes, we produce recycled cardboard boxes. Our range of cardboard boxes contain a minimum of 75% recycled contents. They have a kraft finish on the exterior whilst the walls and interior are entirely recycled.
Our boxes do not pollute as they do not contain any heavy metal products, in line with the European Directive 94/62/CE. Therefore they can be recycled or disposed of responsibly.
No. We have ensured that we have not compromised on quality or price so you can enjoy the same high standard of product from us.

It is the International Standard for Phytosanitary Measures. Its aim is to reduce the spread of destructive organisms from one continent to another. This standard is applicable for all wooden packaging thicker than 6 mm that is destined for countries outside of the European Community.
The wood of packaging and pallets must be fumigated in Methylene Bromide or treated at high temperature (56°C for 30 minutes). All suitable packaging is then indelibly marked, in the form of a feather logo.
A black Möbius Loop with the word “RESY” in the middle is a symbol placed on all paper and cardboard packaging items that are disposed of or recycled under government’s objectives for reducing waste. These products can be recycled in the appropriate recycling streams.
