Sustainability
We have a duty as a company to act in the best interests of the environment and society. We monitor our impact by aligning our practices to the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
The Sustainable Development Goals are the blueprint to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all. They address the global challenges we face, including those related to poverty, inequality, climate, environmental degradation, prosperity, and peace and justice.
Our supply chains
We’re constantly reviewing our own business to ensure that the services we provide, and the way we provide them adhere to human rights and wider ethical practices. This goes for our suppliers too.
Production of our business cards, produced from 100% recycled paper and delivered ‘unbagged’ to reduce plastic waste.
Our procurement process evaluates new suppliers against social and environmental criteria. We even ask certain suppliers for images of their production process.
Manufacturing of our Fair Trade® Illustro trainer T-shirts, delivered ‘unbagged’ to reduce plastic waste.
Carbon tracking
We are always striving to reduce our carbon footprint.

We are currently undergoing a baseline assessment of our company-related CO2 emissions in order to see where and how this can be reduced.
We track our footprint through the Carbon Footprint Calculator TM
Although still under review, our highest carbon contribution is undoubtably air transport. We aim to reduce transport emissions through utilising public, ground transportation where possible and rebalance emissions through carbon offset projects.
