Supply chain
We believe that ethical and sustainable practices are the foundation of responsible business. Our supply chain reflects these values, ensuring that every material, service, and product aligns with our commitment to fairness, transparency, and integrity.
To uphold these principles, we have implemented clear standards for our suppliers, outlining our expectations for ethical and sustainable practices across all levels of their operations. We regularly review our approach to ensure compliance with global human rights standards and remain vigilant in identifying and addressing risks.
As part of our dedication to ethical trade, we are proud members of Sedex, one of the world’s leading organisations for sustainable supply chains. Working collaboratively with our suppliers, we review and assess their environmental and ethical performance, reinforcing responsible practices and driving continuous improvement.
Packaging
We understand that sustainability is a journey. While packaging plays a vital role in delivering quality products to consumers, we are committed to reducing its environmental impact by making responsible choices at every step.
Our Approach to Packaging:
Aluminium Cans: Recognised as one of the most recyclable materials globally, aluminium is a cornerstone of our packaging strategy. Its ability to be recycled repeatedly without losing quality ensures it is both practical and environmentally responsible.
RPET Bottles: We incorporate recycled PET into our bottles to reduce reliance on virgin plastics and support a circular economy. While we acknowledge the challenges of plastic recycling, RPET allows us to extend the lifecycle of existing materials, contributing to waste reduction.
Recycled Cardboard: Our secondary packaging uses recycled cardboard wherever possible, supporting sustainable forestry practices and reducing resource consumption.
We recognise that packaging sustainability is complex, and there is always more to do. That’s why we are committed to being transparent about our efforts, setting realistic goals, and continuously improving to minimise our environmental impact. By combining functionality with responsibility, we aim to deliver products that meet consumer needs while supporting a more sustainable future.
Ingredients
By sourcing responsibly and leveraging natural resources we align our products with the needs of today’s health-conscious and environmentally aware consumers.
Our Staffordshire Spring Water:
Water is the foundation of every drink we create, and we are proud to source it locally from Staffordshire springs. By using this natural resource, we ensure high-quality hydration while reducing transportation distances, minimising our carbon footprint, and supporting local communities. Staffordshire spring water embodies our commitment to sustainable sourcing and excellence.
Sustainable Stevia:
Stevia: A plant-based, zero-calorie sweetener, exemplifies our dedication to sustainability and innovation.
Lower Environmental Impact: Stevia cultivation requires significantly less water, land, and energy compared to traditional sugar production, making it a more sustainable sweetening solution.
Renewable and Natural: Extracted from the leaves of the Stevia rebaudiana plant, stevia is a renewable resource that aligns with our commitment to natural ingredients.
Sustainable Agriculture: We source stevia responsibly, working with trusted suppliers to support farming communities and promote biodiversity while maintaining sustainable land use.
