Environmental Policy
1. Our Commitment
We ensure that every product we source is renewable, recyclable, compostable, or responsibly made. Beyond our products, we work to minimise our environmental footprint across every part of our business — from operations to logistics.
We regularly review our environmental practices, supply chains, and materials to ensure they align with the highest ethical and sustainability standards. This includes assessing the environmental and social responsibility of every supplier we work with.
2. Sustainable Operations
We prioritise green technologies and low-impact operations wherever possible. Our facilities and partners adopt renewable energy, efficient water use, and responsible waste management.
| Area | Our Approach |
|---|---|
| Energy | Renewable energy adoption across facilities and partners |
| Water | Efficient water use across operations |
| Waste | Responsible waste management and recycling |
| Packaging | Reused supplier packaging and recycled cartons for dispatch |
| Sourcing | Local UK and EU sourcing wherever possible to reduce carbon emissions |
We encourage customers to reuse or recycle all materials received, and ensure our suppliers meet strict environmental and labour standards.
3. Reducing Waste
Waste reduction is central to our business model. We aim to use every resource efficiently and minimise offcuts or surplus material. Any recyclable waste from operations is separated and sent for proper recycling — helping to close the loop and return materials to the supply chain.
4. Responsible Sourcing
Most of our products are plastic-free, made from renewable or recycled raw materials, and designed to be reused, recycled, or composted. When virgin materials are unavoidable, we choose suppliers that offer the most sustainable and certified options available.
We also favour UK and EU-based manufacturing to maintain short supply routes, lower carbon emissions, and guarantee compliance with environmental regulations.
5. Why Recycle?
Recycling paper, card, and packaging delivers measurable environmental benefits:
| Benefit | Impact |
|---|---|
| Energy Saving | Reduces energy use by up to 50% |
| Water Conservation | Significantly reduces water consumption |
| Emissions | Cuts greenhouse gas emissions substantially |
| Trees Saved | Every tonne of recycled paper saves around 17 trees |
| CO₂ Prevented | Over a tonne of CO₂ emissions avoided per tonne recycled |
By choosing recycled and recyclable materials, we help preserve forests, protect wildlife habitats, and keep valuable resources in use for longer.
6. Sustainability in Practice
| Commitment | What We Do |
|---|---|
| Packaging | All packaging used by Everwrap is recyclable or compostable |

| Couriers | Carbon-neutral couriers and renewable energy partners prioritised |
| Supplier Reviews | Suppliers' environmental and social practices regularly reviewed |

7. Our Promise
Sustainability is not a marketing term for us — it's a responsibility. We believe that thoughtful sourcing, circular design, and honest operations are the foundation of lasting environmental change.
At Everwrap, we'll continue to evolve, innovate, and hold ourselves accountable as we work toward a more sustainable packaging future.
