Environmental Policy
It is our company policy to offer 'greener' alternatives for craftsmen and craftswomen who are concerned about the environment. Due to our personal concern for our environment we try to offer like-minded people, products that are more ecologically sound than their standard counterparts. We source products from reputable 'green' suppliers wherever possible and take care to research the credentials of the paper etc. we use. Most of the papers we use are 100% recycled and the majority contain a large proportion of post-consumer waste (ie old brochures, print-outs, correspondence etc.).
We believe this to be a positive step to help conserve the Earth's natural resources and reduce the amount of waste which otherwise goes to landfill. Recycling paper can also reduce the energy required in production by up to 50% with similar effects on pollution and carbon dioxide emissions. Recycling also reduces water use by up to 50% and involves fewer chemical processes. the recycling paper business is led by consumer demand so the more we use, the more the mills will produce, to the benefit of everyone !
