Sustainability

Sustainability is at the heart of what we do and is the reason we stumbled into this journey in the first place, as we struggled to find products that were both plastic-free and natural. Below we've listed our ethos and values that will hopefully answer any sustainability questions you may have, but if there is anything we've missed please feel free to email any questions to hello@onlythegoodstuffuk.co.uk.

Packaging

We have sourced completely plastic-free packaging for every single one of our products.  Our kraft pouches are fully compostable right down to the inner protective lining and resealable press closing.  Our stickers are made from recycled paper, which can be recycled again, and printed with vegan printer inks that are also certified for compostability.

Essential Oils

We choose only to use essential oils in our products instead of fragrance oils, which are synthetically made in a lab and often contain harmful chemicals.  The essential oils we use are extracted by steam distillation, a process where hot steam is passed through raw plant materials.  The heat from the steam serves to vapourise the plant materials volatile compounds. This process is considered cleaner and more environmentally friendly than other methods of extraction.  

Natural ingredients

You'll find lots of natural ingredients in our products from bicarbonate of soda and dried flower petals to epsom salts and cornflour.

 

Location

Our products are handmade right here in the UK, in Lancashire.
