Sustainable Connectivity at groupgear

Here at groupgear we are set on making sure that all of our products and services are sustainable. Here are some of the ways we help the environment.

Compostible Bags

Bags are used for majority of our products which made this a top priority we wanted to change - back in 2019 we made a switch, we swapped our Plastic bags out for Corn-based compostible bags. In doing this it meant that our bags became biodegradable, by doing this it has helped to reduce our plastic usage by 7 tonnes per year since 2019.

Sustainable Boxes

Another big part of our products is the outer box packaging. In 2019 we wanted to make another big change - using Recycled and Recyclable materials for our boxes - we already a few products that were in this type of packaging but we wanted to ensure that all the outerbox packaging was made from these materials. In addition to using recycled and recyclable material we also use non toxic ink.

Carbon Neutral Shipping

The next step of our sustainbility policy is to ensure we are using a courier that would be sustainable - the courier we use operates a Carbon Neutral Shipping service in the UK meaning all of our shipments are causing less pollution.

Low Sulfur Transportation

Getting goods into us is a big part of our business. When recieving our goods we ensured that all of our suppliers use low sulfur transportation methods.
