SUSTAINABILITY

100% Recyclable Packaging

Our boxes and bags are recyclable, and our enamel boxes are presented within long-life packaging suitable

Responsible Manufacturing

Each product has been thoughtfully and carefully created by hand, using locally sourced materials and using sensible processes. Our business no longer manufactures enamel within our factory environment, alleviating any unnecessary chemical use and hazardous waste in our facility, it is instead locally sourced from a neighbouring facility in the heart of where the English enamel industry began, in the Midlands.
