At Islington Flowers, sustainability is not just an ideal—it is central to everything we do. We understand how important eco-friendly choices are to our Islington customers, whether they’re brightening a home, offices, or special events. That’s why we have built our practices on planet-friendly principles, from responsible sourcing to conscious delivery.
Our eco-friendly flowers are selected with both beauty and environmental responsibility in mind. We prioritise local and seasonal varieties wherever possible, reducing the carbon footprint from transport and supporting our neighbouring growers. Working closely with local flower farms in and around Islington allows us to offer fresher, longer-lasting blooms while minimising waste and energy use.
For varieties not available locally, we carefully choose Fairtrade certified growers. This not only ensures high environmental standards and ethical working conditions but also supports sustainable livelihoods for flower farmers around the world. Our Fairtrade flowers are rigorously vetted to ensure minimal use of pesticides and sustainable water management, keeping our arrangements as green as they are gorgeous.
We believe that beauty should never come at the expense of the planet. That’s why all Islington Flowers arrangements are wrapped using eco-friendly, recyclable, and compostable packaging. From recycled kraft paper to biodegradable water reservoirs and recyclable ribbons, every element is chosen to reduce waste and environmental impact. Even our gift cards and flower care leaflets are printed on sustainably sourced paper using vegetable-based inks.
We’re continually reviewing and updating our packaging materials to stay ahead in sustainability, ensuring every bouquet delivered in Islington leaves a positive impression on both recipient and planet.
Minimising our environmental impact goes beyond our blooms and packaging—it extends all the way to your doorstep. Islington Flowers offers sustainable flower delivery using a modern fleet of low-carbon vans. Our vehicles run on hybrid and electric technology, drastically reducing emissions compared to traditional delivery. We optimise our delivery routes daily to cut down travel distances and fuel usage, further shrinking our carbon footprint across Islington.
For local deliveries, we’re proud to use emission-free cargo bikes wherever feasible. This not only keeps our air cleaner but helps us deliver your flowers in the freshest condition and right on time.
Working closely with growers in Greater London and sustainable suppliers worldwide, Islington Flowers is devoted to a transparent supply chain. Our local bouquets showcase the best floral talent and freshest flowers Islington has to offer, whilst our Fairtrade partnerships support responsible global agriculture. This ensures every flower arrangement brings joy not just to our customers, but also to the hands that grow and nurture each bloom.
