Eco Range 

We are proud to launch Eco Range Option which has been inspired by the changing world we live in and the global devastation caused by one off packaging.  

With our New Eco Range Option available when purchasing our designs we have re developed some of our most popular designs to have a more natural approach to help our customers combat the environmental impact one use packaging is having on our world. 

Our Eco range designs are intended to change customers buying habits, as a nation we use so much cellophane, plastic bags, plastic ribbons-the list goes on and on! So with this in mind we hope that you choose to opt for our Eco Range which will minimise packaging and encourage more to use Biodegradable materials. 

Lets do this together! 

Update!

Since 2020 we have added an Eco Range option when purchasing so that you can easily opt for your design to be edited to use more sustainable and Eco Friendly products. Since adding this option we have already found that 78.4% of you are choosing to take care of the world we live in.

Thank you all so much for making a difference!

Reuse & Recycle

We have been going to great lengths to research, source and test out various different suppliers for the best quality products that are all ok to be recycled. We are slowly but surly managing to fulfil our goal to keep one off packaging to a minimum and use only materials that are able to be recycled or degraded. We will continue to find the best products for our goals and hope that you work with us to reach our potential.

We encourage all of our customers to recycle every bit of packaging that comes with their floral designs if they are not wanting to re use it so that we can help with the climate crisis that we all face (plus we have invested lots of time & money to finding the best way to achieve this.

Recycle:

Cello, paper, compost, tissue paper, plastic plant pots, Aqua boxes, gift bags, plastic card holders, envelopes

Reuse:

Decorative paper, raffia, bows, wrapping, plant pots, hessian bags, ribbon, pins

Degradable Products:

Brown Bio Foam (Green or artificial flower foam isn’t so make), Clear Cello, raffia, string, decorative paper, craft paper, tissue paper.

General Waste that can’t Degrade:

Green Floral Foam, Artificial foam, Green dishes/trays, wires.

Goals

By the end of 2020 (with customers help) we aim to use only paper wrapping, Bio foam and Glass Vases rather than cellophane and plastic. We aim to have a wider range of dishes/trays etc that can degrade as long as we can buy them from suppliers. Funeral work ideally will have Bio frames rather than plastic. We will stop selling patterned cellophane unless its degradable as well as plastic bags. Customers who wish to purchase one of our bags for life can do so in store.

We hope that you will help support this way of shopping so that we can develop more designs in the future. If you have any facts, suggestions, goals or info that you wish to share-we would love to here your thoughts Give us a shout!
