Our Eco Promise
At Buck n Beard, we strive for continuous improvement in all areas, but especially when it comes to sustainability and the environment. As farmers, we are caretakers for our little plot of land and have a strong connection to nature, the nearby bushland and creeks and our rugged, beautiful country as a whole. As a result, every decision that we make in our business, from product development and operations to the final, packaged product is made with consideration of the environmental impact and our carbon footprint.
Packaging
Packaging is necessary in order to get the product to you safely and contaminant free with ingredients clearly displayed, however we have made very conscious decisions about how best to deliver eco friendly packaging.
For our balms and wet shave soaps we use aluminium as it is light weight and infinitely recyclable and we use glass for our beard oils. Our soap boxes are sourced domestically from FSC sustainable card stock that is biodegradable and recyclable. It goes without saying that any ingredient packaging received in the workshop is reused or recycled wherever possible.
Ingredients
To minimise our carbon footprint and support local producers, we source local ingredients wherever possible and look for sustainable, renewable options when choosing ingredients and suppliers. We are completely transparent about what goes into our products, with the full ingredients listed on every product in descending order. We have nothing to hide.
There are no artificial additives in our products, which help to prevent toxins polluting our waterways and environment.
Animals
As lovers of all things fury, feathered or scaled, we practice ethical farming at Windella Farm, ensuring that the health and wellbeing of our herd is our top priority at all times.
It seems so obvious these days but of course we never test on animals and will not supply to countries where animal testing is required.
