Environmental Sustainability

We believe that we are called to be good stewards of the earth that God has created (Genesis 1:26) and so we seek to minimise our impact on the environment however we can. This work is ongoing, and we know that there is more that we can do, but here are some positive steps we have been able to take so far:

Product

• Our books are printed using sustainably-sourced wood pulp from responsibly-managed forests.
• We work with printers who have received official recognition for their progress in minimising carbon emissions.
• We strive to transport our bulk deliveries by sea freight, using shippers who can demonstrate their commitment to sustainable practices. We avoid shipping by air. 

Packaging

• We use recyclable cardboard to package our books. Where plastic packaging is unavoidable we use biodegradable options whenever possible and we are proactively seeking ways to eliminate all plastic from our supply chain and packaging materials.

• All marketing mailings are plastic free.

• We make it easy to unsubscribe from physical mailings if preferred.

Office culture

• We support staff who want to walk, run or cycle to work through the provision of bike racks, shower facilities and participation in the cycle to work scheme.
• We use tea, coffee and water dispensers that do not require pods or single-use plastic bottles.
• We have active recycling schemes in place for paper, cardboard, glass and plastic.
• We invest in enterprise-level video conferencing to minimise the need for air travel.
