Our Values and Sustainability


Our Values and Sustainability

Here are Hopping Dog Cards we take our values and sustainability very seriously.   What this mean is that we try really hard to make the right choices for our business and customers so we all do "our bit' for our world.  

What we have put in place is to really help deliver on our values and sustainability.  Below we have itemised how Hopping Dog Cards is doing for our precious world and environment.  

The sustainability in the paper we use for our stationery 

All paper we are buying for our lovely greetings cards is bought form our paper merchants and we give a donation to THE WORLD LAND TRUST to help with maintaining our forests around the world.  Please visit the page on our parent companies website here Carbon Balanced Paper

We buy all our paper from paper merchants/mills based in the United Kingdom, this means we do not have to ship from Italy, France and China.  This helps with our carbon footprint and sustainability

Our business is constantly striving to find papers that are FSC or recycled too this helps with producing a more environmental greetings card, which is in line with our values.   We also make sure we do not compromise on the quality of our cards and stationery. 

New technology, is what really drives our stationery print and we totally embrace this in the print and paper industries.  This helps us deliver beautiful stationery that is innovative and creative.  One such print technique is SCODIX a lovely embossed gloss of foil finish to print.  

Our print values 

Our top print supplier is based in Northamptonshire and we work closely with them to develop our range of products.  They carry out all our research and development for us to make sure all our cards are what we want.  This print supplier is an independent business and we really love working with the team there. 

Our mugs are made in the UK from fine bone china.  They are made in Staffordshire and are printed and hand finished in the Potteries.  We buy all our bone china from a family run business in Staffordshire. 

We do not import any of our products they are all sourced in the UK and British made. 

Our Values and Sustainability World Land Trust

 

We are currently looking at papers which are compostable and biodegradable which we hope to work with in the near future.

Through our parent company we are able to give help to our two charities
