At Upper Norwood Florist, our passion extends beyond beautiful bouquets to the environment and community we serve. We recognise the strong desire among Upper Norwood customers and businesses for sustainable practices, and we take pride in leading the region's efforts for eco-friendly flowers and responsible flower delivery.
To help reduce waste and lower our environmental impact, Upper Norwood Florist prioritises eco packaging for all our arrangements and gifts. Instead of single-use plastics, we use recycled paper, bio-based wraps, compostable ribbons, and recyclable boxes. Our commitment ensures every bunch, bouquet, or hamper leaves our shop with a minimal carbon footprint on its journey to your door.
One of the best ways to offer sustainable flower delivery in Upper Norwood is to source our flowers as close to home as possible. We partner with trusted local growers and carefully select seasonal British blooms whenever they are available, reducing the need for long-distance transport. Not only does this practice save energy, but it also boosts our local economy and guarantees that customers receive the freshest, longest-lasting flowers possible. Supporting local flower farming is one of our cornerstone beliefs for a sustainable future in floristry.
For premium and exotic blooms that can’t be produced locally, we make sure all our flowers are sourced from suppliers who are committed to ethical labour practices. We prioritise Fairtrade-certified flowers, ensuring workers are paid fairly and farms operate to the highest environmental standards. By choosing Fairtrade, we support communities around the globe and guarantee fairness from seed to bouquet. This ethical approach also means all our flowers are grown with respect for the environment and for people, aligning with the values of Upper Norwood’s conscientious customers and businesses.
Reducing emissions from our delivery service is a key part of our sustainability promise. Our flower delivery vans in Upper Norwood include models with the lowest available carbon emissions, and we are always seeking new green transport technologies. We carefully plan delivery routes and schedules to maximise efficiency, so every floral journey is as eco-friendly as possible. In addition, we are investigating the latest electric vehicle options to further shrink our carbon footprint in future.
