Packing Disposal and Recycling

Advice on packaging disposal and recycling

We want you to receive your product in the best possible condition, so it has been packaged carefully to help ensure this. Packaging is designed to protect products during storage and transportation, and always we endeavour to minimize the use of raw materials in its production.

We encourage you to dispose of all elements of packaging correctly, recycling where ever possible. Please consult your local authority to check domestic waste and recycling initiatives so we can work together to protect the environment.

On this page you will find the necessary information to aid proper disposal.

The packaging of our products typically consists of an outer cardboard box with internal protective components. These may be made of expanded polystyrene, cardboard or paper pulp. There may also be plastic bags or films to protect the product, contain documentation or other small parts.

Note: Not all packaging contains all material mentioned.
