There is always more & more to be done, at ShoeStation Direct we are making a conscious effort to reduce our negative impact on the environment and make more sustainable choices.
Renewable Energy
Our main energy source is solar, which generates approx 40,100 kWh per year over 116 panels. Our solar panels generate electricity that powers our operations, and any surplus is passed into the National Grid. Generating 40,100 kWh is the equivalent CO2 offset of 131 trees, or 2.83tons of CO2 Emissions.
Packaging and plastics
With packaging materials, we simply use 100% Recycled LDPE Mailing Bags which are also recycleable and compostable. Recycled packaging requires much less energy and resources than virgin materials, and gives new life to materials that would otherwise be wasting away in the landfill.
Cardboard
We recycle all cardboard, and make a conscious effort to avoid recycleable materials ending up in general waste and landfill.
