Custom Koala is taking steps to be more sustainable

Custom Koala are always striving to be more eco-friendly and to operate more sustainably across all channels of our business.

Our team is committed to moving towards a more sustainable world for everyone – and that’s why we’re excited to announce our new partnership with Ecologi!

With Ecologi, we plant one tree for every order placed, while helping to support climate projects across the world.

Ecologi is an environmental organisation who are trying to help businesses and individuals alike to have a positive impact on the world around us, our environment and climate! And the best part is, you can see the difference your orders make, by visiting the Custom Koala Forest!

You can see the number of trees that have been planted in our forest thanks to your orders,  along with the projects we’re helping to fund! Visit our forest and help us move towards a more sustainable future, one tree at a time!

But that’s not all! The Custom Koala team is taking other small steps to make a big difference in our carbon footprint. Here are a few things we do to try and be more environmentally friendly in our business:

  • We use 100% renewable FSC approved wood in all our canvas frames.
  • We’ve upgraded to HP Latex water based inks on all applicable products.
  • We’ve got a new range of electric forklift trucks to operate around our warehouse.
  • Our warehouse is installed with LED lighting throughout, including our offices and production areas.
  • Motion sensors are active in the warehouse so that lights are only on when employees working.
  • All paper used throughout the business (excluding art and poster prints!) are EU Ecolabel (PT/011/002) and is 100% recyclable!
  • The cardboard packaging that we use for deliveries is fully recyclable and packing material is kept to a minimum to reduce waste.
  • And much more!

Don’t forget to visit the Custom Koala Forest and see how many trees your orders have planted!
