Are all your products made sustainably?
At Wykeham's, we are committed to endorsing sustainability and responsible environmental stewardship. We don't pretend that producing journals is fully sustainable, but it is our goal to create high-quality journals and planners that not only inspire creativity and productivity but remain mindful of the environment where possible. Specific things we do to improve the environmental impact our products include:
Use of FSC Certified Paper
- Sourcing: the paper used in our journals and planners is often FSC certified, ensuring it comes from responsibly managed forests that provide environmental, social, and economic benefits. By choosing FSC certified paper, we support sustainable forest management, try to reduce our carbon footprint, and promote the use of renewable resources.
Environmental Impact Reduction
- Recycling and Waste Reduction: We aim to minimize waste throughout our production process, encouraging recycling and the use of recycled materials wherever possible. We are also looking to use more recycled materials in our products and hope to release these in the near future.
- Supply Chain: We work closely with our suppliers to ensure they share our commitment to sustainability, prioritizing partners who implement more sustainable practices. We try to import our products via sea shipping which often has a lower carbon impact per product than other alternatives (such as rail or air shipping).
Continuous Improvement
- Innovation: We are committed to continuous improvement in our sustainability practices, exploring innovative solutions and materials that further reduce our environmental impact. We are trying to develop more products which make use of recycled materials. In addition, we are making efforts to locate more of our supply chain in the UK in order to reduce the environmental costs of logistics.
- Transparency: Our company is transparent about our sustainability efforts, engaging with our customers and stakeholders to promote environmental awareness.
