Taking responsibility
Taking responsibility
Here at NOT SLALAD we are very aware of the impact our actions can have on the planet so working towards a more sustainable future is key. Find out more below.
Origin
All flowers we use are sourced from the UK and neighbouring European countries, as well as from the NOT SALAD cutting patch. This avoids flowers being flown across the globe and reducing our carbon footprint.
Floral Foam
IT’S A NO FROM US!!
Made from non-compostable single use micro-plastics which is toxic to aquatic organisms.
Dyed/Bleached
Nature is bloody beautiful and in our eyes shouldn’t be modified. The industry uses harsh and polluting chemicals to achieve the modifications, so not suitable for composting.
Seasonality
By working with ‘locally’ grown produce it gives us the best and strongest seasonal flowers and foliage’s available at that time of year.
Recycle/Reuse
All our packaging is recyclable or compostable, from raffia ribbons to water bags that completely decompose.
Kenzan, chicken wire, tubes and pots are the mechanics behind wedding and event arrangements that are all re-usable.
Flower waste is composted.
Learning
We are continuously exploring techniques and striving for better practices.
