Sustainability: Our Ethos
In a world increasingly marked by rapid consumption, the call for sustainable alternatives has never been louder. At lily + ellis, sustainability isn't just a buzzword; it's interwoven into every aspect of our brand's DNA. Our commitment extends from the core of our products, the ingredients, to their outer representation, the packaging.
Sustainable Ingredients: Our Pledge
Coco Apricot Wax
Our choice of coco apricot wax isn't random. This wax is not only luxurious in its appearance and performance but also sustainable in its nature. Being a renewable resource, it significantly reduces our carbon footprint. Its clean burn ensures minimal to no waste, making it an eco-friendly choice for candle lovers.
FSC Certified Wood Wicks
The Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certification is a mark of responsible forest management. By choosing FSC certified wood wicks, we ensure that every time you light up a lily + ellis candle, you're indirectly contributing to the preservation of our precious forests and supporting sustainable forestry practices.
Natural Fragrance Oils
By harnessing the essence of nature, like limonene from lemons and geraniol from roses, we opt for sustainable extraction methods. These processes not only retain the authenticity of the scent but also ensure that the environmental impact is minimal.
Packaging with a Purpose
Glass Containers with Bamboo Lids
Glass is 100% recyclable and can be recycled endlessly without compromising its quality or purity. Our choice of bamboo lids complements this beautifully. Bamboo, as a fast-growing grass, requires no fertilizer and self-regenerates from its roots. It doesn’t need replanting, making it an incredibly sustainable option.
Paper Tubes
Our commitment to reducing plastic waste is further manifested in our use of paper tubes. These tubes are biodegradable, reducing landfill waste and ensuring that our planet remains unharmed.
No Issue Tissue Papers and Stickers
Taking our sustainable packaging a step further, we’ve incorporated the use of No Issue tissue papers and stickers. Made from eco-friendly materials, these components align seamlessly with our brand's sustainability vision, ensuring that every aspect of our product presentation treads gently on the earth.
We're constantly evolving, researching, and innovating to make our products and processes even more sustainable. At lily + ellis, we believe that luxury and responsibility can coexist. Our candles are not just a symbol of opulence but also a beacon of sustainability, radiating our commitment to a brighter, greener future.
Join us in lighting up the world sustainably, one candle at a time.
