At Natures Gleam, every product we offer reflects our unwavering commitment to sustainability and eco-friendly living. From greeting cards to travel mugs, we carefully select items that align with our values, ensuring that they not only delight our customers but also tread lightly on the planet.
This journey wouldn’t be possible without the amazing partners we work with: Teemill, Gelato, Two Fifteen, Printful, and Printify.
While we know this limits our product range right now, we’re proud to prioritise quality and sustainability over quantity. Our hope is that as more eco-conscious options become available, our collection will grow.
Watching a recent documentary by Ben Fogle highlighted the importance of this mission. A family living on an island in Cambodia spent their days cleaning up plastic waste washed ashore – a stark reminder of the global impact of consumer choices. It’s a problem we’re determined to address by offering products that support a cleaner, greener future.
Our Partners: Supporting Sustainability
1. Teemill
Teemill leads the way in circular fashion, using 100% organic cotton for their products and employing renewable energy for their operations. Their innovative system allows customers to return worn-out products for recycling into new ones. Plus, for every purchase, Teemill plants a tree – directly contributing to reforestation.
2. Gelato
Gelato brings a global perspective to sustainability, producing items close to the customer to reduce carbon emissions. Their eco-friendly printing practices and efforts to use responsibly sourced materials ensure that every product is kind to the planet.
3. Two Fifteen
Based in the UK, Two Fifteen specialises in environmentally conscious print-on-demand services. Their dedication to sustainability matches ours, ensuring that every product is as planet-friendly as it is beautiful.
4. Printful
Printful is another partner committed to reducing waste. Their print-on-demand model means products are created only when ordered, minimising overproduction. We choose only their eco-certified options to maintain our focus on sustainability.
5. Printify
Like Printful, Printify’s print-on-demand services allow us to avoid overproduction while offering high-quality products. While not every Printify item meets our eco-friendly standards, we only use products that align with our mission.
Why Sustainability Matters
The image of that Cambodian family cleaning their coastline lingers in our minds. It’s a reminder that every purchase, every material, and every product design has a ripple effect on the planet. By choosing sustainable suppliers and products, we can help reduce waste, conserve resources, and inspire others to make mindful choices.
Looking Ahead
While our product range is limited right now, our hope is that the future brings more eco-friendly innovations. We are committed to expanding our collection thoughtfully, ensuring every new addition stays true to our values.
Thank you for supporting this journey. Together, we’re making a difference, one sustainable choice at a time. 🌍
