Being Sustainable

Whilst The Spirited Club may be in its infancy, the decisions we've taken over many months of planning to develop our packaging has always had sustainability in mind.

Out letterboxes are made from FSC-sourced materials and our bottles and bottle caps are 100% recyclable. Even the stickers we purchase to print the bottle labels are made from recycled material.

Nevertheless, there is plenty more that we, the club and its members, can do to support the environment.

REDUCE

The club is already developing a new collection box that requires less material. Additionally, and as we grow, the order sizes we are able to make for all packaging will increase, thereby increasing drop volumes and reducing the delivery carbon footprint for each unit.

The Spirited Club is also actively looking into Carbon reduction programmes, i.e., programmes that will enable the club to become carbon-neutral. More on this soon!

REUSE

We are already actively exploring a use-and-return system for our bottles (and possibly the boxes). This includes considering not only the cost of such a scheme, but also the carbon footprint created in returning packaging to the club vs. the footprint of purchasing new packaging.

RECYCLE

Our packaging is 100% recyclable, so if you are going to throw it away, please ensure you place it in the recycling bins in your homes.

REPURPOSE

Rather than throw the bottles away, we want you all to reuse our bottles in the home in as many ways as you can imagine. Top of our list is to create your own diffuser for bathrooms (you can read more about this in our blog here - https://thespiritedclub.com/blogs/news/upcycling-glass-bottles-reed-diffusers) but really, we want you to share your ideas with us at richard@thespiritedclub.com and we'll share these ideas with the whole club.
