Meeting your Sustainability goals

Every business has a set of sustainability goals that touch their whole company from policy to people and products. At Hotbox we put sustainability at the heart of every one of our workspace accessories, putting a big green tick next to your product and people goals.

Sustainable Sourcing & The Circular Economy

At Hotbox we believe circularity is critical to help end plastic waste and it also offers strong economic, social and climate benefits.

We endeavour to source 100% Post Consumer Recycled Polypropylene for our caddies. Removing consumer used Single Use Plastics (SUPs) from being sent to landfill or ending up in our oceans assisting in creating a Circular Economy.

Our 'On the Go' softgoods are currently manufactured with Global Recycled Standard 100% Post Consumer Recycled Polyester (rPET), which assists in recycling plastic bottles from landfill and ocean.

Our materials

From Global Recycled Standard approved fabrics to post consumer recycled waste – every Hotbox product has been consciously crafted. We make all of our products to stand the test of time, standing up to daily use and different working environments.

Working with Useful Wood Company
As part of our supply chain we have a full pallet recycling service, broken pallets in the UK that can’t be reused are collected by The Useful Wood Company. They recycle and reuse waste wood which helps to reduce deforestation and the need for landfill, which in turn helps to prevent the release of CO2 and methane into the atmosphere preventing damage to the environment. They are also a social enterprise company offering people who cannot access the job market at present the opportunity to gain experience of a real work environment, gaining confidence and useful skills for the future.
