Additionally, the House supports environmental initiatives and partners with organisations that preserve natural resources.
By setting such high standards across its policies, GRAHAM & POTT hopes to be a pioneering example for other organisations to follow in its sustainability efforts in order to preserve the planet for future generations.
Climate Commitment
We strive to clean up after ourselves.
That is the reason GRAHAM & POTT is proud to support cutting-edge organisations that remove carbon from the air.
Together, participating organisations have:
- Removed thousands of tonnes of carbon from the atmosphere.
- Provided carbon-neutral shipping on more than ten million orders.
For every order placed through the Official Online Boutique, a formula is used to calculate the estimated shipping emissions. Based on those estimates, a portion of the revenue goes to carbon removal organisations vetted by scientists from Carbon Direct. Those organisations use the funds to remove however much carbon our shipment may have created, with any additional funds going towards the further development of carbon removal technologies.
