Our Ethics
 
We strive to become a greener and more ethical company and we know many of our customers have a similar ambition. Below are some of the things we've put in place to help improve our own and our customers ethical performance. 
 
Promoting Environmental Awareness
 
To help raise awareness of environmental issues in the workplace, we've created some A3 posters giving advice and tips on how to create a greener office. Click here to download your copies of our Be Green posters.
 
World Environment Day on the 5th of June provided us with an excellent opportunity to increase environmental awareness among our own team. We asked our staff this year to think creatively about how they could save additional energy in the workplace and then document it in a photograph. There were several fantastic submissions and the most imaginative energy saving idea was awarded with a bottle of Pimms – it is summer after all!
 

Sustainable marketing
 
Wherever possible we use and print on FSC accredited paper. By only using FSC paper for all the catalogues and literature we produce, we can be confident our marketing efforts are not contributing to the destruction of the World's forests but are providing an incentive for responsible forest management and helping to increase the number of certified forests.
 
We also work hard to reduce the amount of paper we use. Almost all of our literature is available in electronic format and wherever possible sent electronically.
 

Reducing packaging

We want our packaging to have the lowest environmental impact possible which is why we pack and deliver most of our goods in our own reusable red cardboard boxes. Made from recycled cardboard we can collect and reuse them up to 5 times before recycling them.

Recycling

We're working hard to boost recycling levels and now offer a complete recycling service. You can get your recycling bags delivered along with your normal RED BOX orders, throw all your recycling into one bag and we'll arrange the collection for you. It's easy to set-up, just complete our online registration form here.

Our carbon footprint

We believe that global climate change can only be addressed if each and every one of us takes steps to reduce our carbon footprint. RED BOX is actively seeking ways to reduce its carbon emissions. We have already switched to a green energy supplier and have streamlined our delivery schedule to enhance our carbon-efficiency. 
 
In partnership with the CarbonNeutral Company, RED BOX is now a carbon neutral organisation.

Doing good things

Whiz KidzThis year we’re donating 5% from the sales of all Post-It Notes® to registered charity Whizz Kidz which funds customised mobility equipment for disabled children. The Whizz Kidz vision is to ensure that every disabled child in the UK is given the opportunity to fulfill their potential and lead an ordinary, active childhood. The RED BOX team will be organising and participating in a host of fund raising activities to support the money we raise from sales of Post-It Notes®. Each quarter we’ll update this space with details on how we’re doing. In the meantime, please keep buying Post-It Notes® from us and help make a difference.

Whizz-Kiz is the working name of The Movement for Non-Mobile Children
Registered charity no: 802872

 

Supplying our customers with eco-friendly products

We've crammed lots of products into our Essentials 2010 catalogue which meet stringent ethical standards. They're easy to spot because they are highlighted in green and we have created a set of symbols which help to identify why they are ethical. Click here to read more about them.
