At Etelage we value the environment and believe even small changes make a big difference to our planet.
Some of the initiatives we have undertaken in the last year:
Source sustainable & fair trade products.
eg Seeds from the Amazon rainforest floor. Deep in the rainforest grows the Ivory Palm. It produces an extraordinary fruit, the Tagua Nut. Enjoy this product knowing that its purchase supports the employment of the native community. The income received from the Tagua crop is a strong economic incentive to save the tropical jungles from deforestation. This helps stabilise the rainforest & ultimately the world environments. Purchase on line or at our Newtown shop.
∑ Energy audit. Eg installed lower wattage bulbs in our office and Newtown store.
∑ Transport. We are choosing to ship most of our overseas orders by sea freight from Europe. (rather than air freight)
Packaging. We are using reusable tins and recycled paper bags for our gift packs.
