Bottle Recycling

One of our key aims is to reduce waste and the size of our carbon footprint.

Bottle recycling statistics

Empty perfume bottles recycled

Last year, we recycled 80.3% of waste from our distribution centre (83% target). Since 2019, we've saved over 61,000 litres of diesel by streamlining deliveries and continue to reduce mileage and emissions with our national fleet partner.

We are moving towards becoming digital, with customer-facing screens and app-based task management for colleagues. Where we control electricity purchasing, we use 100% renewable energy, and all lighting across stores, offices, and our warehouse is now LED, helping to lower energy use.

We're committed to reducing our overall energy consumption by 30% by 2030.

We are taking recycling to the next level

We've partnered with Veritree to help give back to our planet. They plant trees in locations around the world. For every bottle recycled with us, we'll donate the cost of planting one tree to veritree, to help them carry out their amazing work and help you feel good when you smell good.
