We only use 100% recycled gold vermeil and sterling silver. As a result, by the end of 2021, more than 1,00,000 kg of CO2 emissions will have been avoided.
Our goal is to avoid and reduce emissions wherever possible. As we work towards it, we're offsetting all our current emissions by contributing to Gold Standard climate protection projects that prevent an equivalent amount of CO2 from entering the air.
This spring, we've begun to roll out new boxes and bags, which are 100% recyclable and use only FSC paper. With our paperless dispatch, we're saving 1.8 million A4 sheets of paper per year - enough paper to cover Manhattan two times over.
Single use plastic is pervasive throughout the jewellery industry. We have committed to removing ALL single use plastic from our supply chain in 2021. As of spring 2021, we have sourced alternatives for 85% of the plastic in our supply chain.
We encourage everyone to practice responsible consumerism. Our jewellery recycling programme accepts all pieces, regardless of brand. Our 5 year replace warranty and lifetime repair service means you can purchase less and wear longer.
We've made the switch to renewable energy in all offices and stores in which we have direct control of the energy supply. The heart of our operations in Norfolk, UK, is a historic 16th century building we preserved in an award-winning development.
Our jewellery is thoughtfully handcrafted before it makes its way to you. That is the quality standard behind every Monica Vinader piece and a promise we can make because our suppliers are family. After all, we've been together for over 12 years.
All our workshops are Responsible Jewellery Council members and go through Intertek Workplace Conditions Assessment. Regular audits ensure fair wages and hours, employee rights, health and safety, and responsible corporate governance.
We ensure 100% of our diamonds are responsibly sourced by adhering to the Kimberley Process and the World Diamond Council System of Warranties.
In 2019, we joined forces with Women for Women International to help women in conflict affected countries to rebuild their lives. With Monica as an ambassador, we have sponsored more than 335 women through 12-month educational programmes.
Based in Jaipur, India, Monica discovered the incredible Jagriti School during a visit to our workshops. The Jagriti Foundation provides free education to children in the slums of Jaipur. Today, we have enrolled 90 children in school for a year.
Over the last year, we've raised £31,500 for the NHS with our customers through efforts like our NHS Skinny Sapphire initiative, where all profits from two new styles were donated. It's our way to say thank you for their work supporting our community.
To hold ourselves accountable and make sure we are delivering on our promise, we've partnered with others who share in this goal, both inside and outside of our industry.
Positive Luxury has recognised Monica Vinader as a business that meets the highest sustainability standards and leaves a positive impact on the world. The Butterfly Mark accredits our ongoing dedication to doing better.
Since 2020, Monica Vinader has been committed to the UN Global Compact corporate responsibility initiative and its principles in the areas of human rights, labour, the environment and anti-corruption.
