Clean Energy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In 2021 we switched all our energy contracts to Green Electricity and Green Gas tariffs. So now, all our warehouses and offices are powered by sustainable energy and downsizing their carbon footprints. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Zero to Landfill<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

100% of our waste is either recycled or treated at energy-for-waste facilities, to produce enough electricity to power 60,000 homes. None of our waste goes to landfill and we’re working hard to cut our volume of waste and find new ways of repurposing it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n

Recyclable Packaging<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

All ILG paper and cardboard packaging is made from recycled materials. Instead of oil-based packing materials, we use paper-based void-fill wherever possible. Every week we bail tonnes of cardboard for recycling. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
