For the Environment
At Túffenup, our goal is to provide strength and resilience for people and the planet.
All our decisions will consider their environmental and social impacts as fixed costs of doing business.
We aim to leave more than we take.
Material & Supply Chain Footprint
This is how we currently manage our packaging and logistics. As things change, we'll document them here:
-
Hard Grit Tin
- 100% aluminium with an HDPE lid liner
- Made in China
-
Next proposed action
- undertake further lab tests for shelf stability of tin without HDPE liner to have it removed from production
-
Freight
- Empty tins to the lab for filling (China - Barcelona, Spain)
- Filled tins to distribution warehouses (Barcelona to Bremen, Germany / Ipswich, UK)
-
Next proposed actions
- investigate least impactful freighting options
- offset emissions and impacts
-
Inserts & Flyers
- 100% recycled paper, printed locally to the distribution warehouses using low-impact inks.
-
Next proposed action
- redesigns to make these smaller
-
Logistics Fulfillment
- Localised distribution hubs (Bremen, Ipswich)
- Plastic-free mailers
-
Next proposed actions
- mailers sized to each order to minimise waste
- investigate if / when more distribution hub will reduce carbon emissions
In the meantime
- We've partnered with Greenspark with 6 plastic bottles removed for every purchase made
