We use Ecovadis

We offset our carbon emissions from vehicles
On average we drive up to 450 miles a day between our plant technicians attending our customer sites.
This equates to 1 tonne of CO2 per vehicle each month or 3 tonnes for all our vehicles.
We have therefore donated £100 to the World Land Trust, Buy an Acre scheme to offset in advance our carbon emissions for 2022.

We plant trees when you buy eco-friendly products
Whether its live planting, preserved moss or a herb garden,
Leaflike are committed to plant a tree for every sustainable element in your order.
Here are a list of elements, but not limited to:
– live planting in an eco planter
– replica planting in an eco planter
– herb garden
– preserved moss wall
– replica green wall
We consider replica planting to be an offset with maintenance as we are not regularly driving to the venue.
Fresh floral displays are not in our sustainable list due to the high maintenance and longevity of the product.

Track our progress
Our tree planting partner plants mangroves, one of the most effective and economic methods of offsetting carbon emissions.
Each mangrove tree removes approximately 0.3 tonnes of CO2 from the atmosphere over its growth life, approximately 25 years.
-
We support a circular economy
Leaflike are able to support a circular economy by bringing back products once they have finished their time on display.
This applies to green walls as well as the more traditional floral arrangements
and seasonal changeover maintenance contracts created for ongoing customers.
Whether its preserved florals, recycled planters, lifelike green walls and even moss,
the priority is always to reuse and recycle products where possible.
