Our Ethical Responsibilities

Environmental policy

Swabees is a responsible bath and beauty manufacturer and wholesale supplier. We remain focused on sourcing environmental solutions in all of our packaging that will lessen our environmental impact, while serving as an example to others.

Following sustainable practices is important to our business success and we are committed to 'doing no harm' to the environment by:

Using products from sustainable sources

Recycling and reusing packaging from goods and materials shipped to us.

Ensuring suppliers do not test on animals (please see our statement on animal testing and our suppliers), provide traceble data on where materials come from (from grower to final product)

Reducing travel miles by purchasing from UK suppliers and small businesses.

Utilising packaging solutions that come from sustainable sources and are home compostable/recyclable;

Improving production to increase efficiency, reduce waste and produce similar-strength products using less material and utilising green energy sources such as our solar powered small holding.

Our Packaging

We use glass jars for our honey provision and offer local refills, just pop along and we can sanitise and recycle your jar (new lid provided) and offer 50p off that jar.

You can also resend jars back to us with a free return label (a minimum of 4 jars) and we will send a £1.00 credit to you for your next order. Click to request here.

We use recyclable packaging for all our beauty products including the new 'I'm Green' eco-bags:-
