British sex toy innovator, Love Not War, which was recently named ‘Best Sustainable Sex Toy Brand’ at the annual Marie-Claire Sustainability Awards, has announced that all customer orders will now be shipped carbon neutral. The firm will offset the carbon emissions from shipping its parcels to support projects that seek to remove carbon dioxide from the air, balancing out the carbon impact of every delivery.
Love Not War says that demand from consumers for more sustainable practices from brands continues to rise, and it cites a recent study that suggested nearly 90% of respondents would be willing to pay more money for sustainable products and services and 56% said they ranked a company’s sustainable efforts and practices above brand names.
Will Ranscombe, co-founder and CEO of Love Not War, said: “We’re proud to be able to offer carbon neutral shipping to all of our customers. We often speak about how sustainability is very much a core value for us at Love Not War and so being able to offset the carbon emissions from our shipping is another step forward for us in helping to make the planet a better place for us all.
“Although I would like to mention that this offer of carbon-neutral shipping extends beyond just meeting consumer’s demands, in fact, our commitment to reducing our environmental impact and lowering our carbon footprint is something that is ingrained in the very DNA of our company and so it is something we strive for continuously.
“We know that our consumers value every effort made to help the environment so being able to provide sustainable deliveries through carbon offsets is just one of the many practices that we as a brand are putting into place.”
Further measures taken by the firm include its custom-built, green-energy-powered factory that designs and creates all its products from predominantly recycled and recyclable materials. It also limits the use of plastics in its products and uses body-safe and earth-safe materials including, FDA-grade silicone, recycled aluminium, eco-friendly glue, soy ink and FSC cardboard packaging.
