Environmental sustainability
At Stannp, environmental responsibility is core to everything we do. From ISO 14001:2015 certification to active carbon capture and zero waste to landfill, we're committed to sustainable practices that protect our planet for future generations.
Our environmental commitment.
Discover how we integrate sustainability into every aspect of our operations.
We hold ISO 14001:2015 accreditation and maintain an integrated business management system that ensures sustainability is at the core of our operations. Our Environmental Management System is regularly reviewed through internal and external audits conducted annually by UKAS accredited organisations, demonstrating our commitment to continuous environmental improvement.
We're committed to achieving Net Zero before 2050. Our Scope 2 emissions have reduced by 23% in the past year, down from 31 to 24 tonnes. Our offices operate in a BREEAM-certified building powered by 100% renewable energy.
Through our partnership with Forest Carbon via our paper suppliers, we've captured over 81 tonnes of CO₂ creating over 2300 square meters of new native woodland across the UK. We actively participate in carbon capture schemes to offset unavoidable emissions.
All our paper and envelopes are FSC, FSC Mix, or PEFC certified from responsibly managed forests. Every product we produce is fully recyclable through standard household recycling. Our windowed envelopes use biodegradable, BPA-free film windows made from materials like glassine—100% recyclable and biodegradable.
Since March 2025, 0% of our total waste goes to landfill. We maintain comprehensive recycling programs and our in-house engineers recycle parts from decommissioned machines for reuse. We offer data cleaning services to reduce unnecessary mailings and use quality control samples before production to minimise wastage.
Our volunteer Green Team meets bi-monthly to drive sustainability initiatives across the organisation. The team has successfully implemented waste reduction programs, explored renewable energy solutions, and champions eco-friendly practices throughout our operations. Through employee-led workshops and awareness campaigns, we foster a culture where every team member contributes to environmental responsibility—ensuring sustainability remains embedded in our daily business decisions and extends into the wider community.
