Packaging
Information and Guidance.
One
of the main things that we pride ourselves
in is trying to be a very ethical Company. This may sound ironic
since we design
and sell
parts for European
classic
cars
and Narrow Boats. It always reminds me of the Honda
Diesel advert.
Where
they advertise that diesal engines have been designed to be cleaner
and help to reduce carbon admissions.
We
at Volksbolts aim to do the same with any product that we make and
sell; to help with our carbon foot print.
One
of the main things that we do is aim to have everything that we
produce to be made in the UK if possible. We are also very big on
Reduce, Reuse and Recycle.
At
the moment, the packaging that we use to ship our products is plastic
bags or tubs which can then be re-used by our customers. Wherever
possible we try to use the minimal amount of packaging. So, at times
your items may come in a reused corrugated cardboard box from our
local shop.
The
boss recently attended the Packaging and Innovation Show at the NEC
in Birmingham to look for other ways that we could possibly package
our products to make them more presentable for shops and shows.
We
also intend to expand into Amazon to sell our products in addition to
having the eBay store.
We
look to use UK Companies wherever possible to stick with our belief
that we should buy British whenever possible; and will continue to do
so in order to achieve customer satisfaction and reduce our carbon
foot print in the future.
