Sustainability at Florist Surrey: Our Commitment to the Environment
Leading the Way with Eco-Friendly Flowers in Surrey
At Florist Surrey, we believe that beautiful flowers can and should be kind to the planet. More of our customers and local businesses are seeking eco-friendly flowers in Surrey, and we are proud to lead the way with practices that respect both nature and our community. Our sustainability promise ensures that every bouquet and every delivery supports a greener tomorrow without compromising on quality or freshness.
Eco Packaging: Green from Start to Finish
We exclusively use eco-conscious packaging for all our floral arrangements and gift items. Gone are the days of single-use plastics and non-recyclable wraps. Instead, our flowers are presented in biodegradable or recycled materials, ensuring everything can be composted or recycled after enjoyment. Our commitment doesn’t stop at presentation—we consider every layer, using sustainable materials for ribbons, cards, and even adhesives. This approach supports our goal to minimise waste and reduce our environmental impact across Surrey.
Supporting Local: Sourcing Flowers Close to Home
Local sourcing lies at the heart of our sustainable flower delivery in Surrey. Whenever possible, we choose flowers grown by Surrey’s own farmers and horticulturists. Not only does this reduce the carbon footprint associated with long-distance transport, but it also supports our local economy and ensures our bouquets are as fresh as possible. By working directly with growers, we can offer unique seasonal varieties and pass on the benefits of reduced travel on to our customers and the environment alike.
Fairtrade Flowers: Ethical Sourcing Year-Round
While we celebrate Surrey’s local blooms, we recognise that some customers love exotic or out-of-season flowers. For any varieties sourced from abroad, we are committed to purchasing only Fairtrade flowers. These blooms guarantee better conditions for workers, promote social development in producer communities, and enable us to trace every stem back to an ethical farm. Choosing Fairtrade aligns with our determination to be both environmentally and socially responsible in everything we do.
Low-Carbon Delivery Vans: Greener Flower Delivery Across Surrey
Flower delivery inevitably adds to our carbon footprint, which is why we have invested in a new fleet of low-carbon and hybrid vans. Every sustainable flower delivery in Surrey is made with efficiency and eco-friendliness in mind, utilising the latest technology to keep emissions to a minimum. Our drivers are trained in green delivery routes and practices—ensuring your flowers arrive fresh, fast, and as sustainably as possible.
