Sustainability isn’t just a buzzword at SR Mailing; it’s at the very core of everything we do as a leading UK supplier of eco-friendly packaging. Everything we do here is designed for minimal impact on the environment, from our recyclable mailing bags, cardboard boxes and envelopes to our shipping policiries and out-of-work activities.
Everyone at SR Mailing is here to make sustainability simple and accessible for businesses wanting high-quality packaging solutions. It’s not just our products that promote sustainability; everything we do is carefully considered to reduce our carbon footprint, minimising waste and helping our customers make eco-friendly choices.
We’re incredibly proud to be Global Recycled Standard (GRS) certified four years in a row, not only marking our compliance with sustainable practices but also reflecting our ongoing commitment and wide range of practices that help protect people and the environment.
We began our mission of sustainability back in 2014 with the idea that eco-friendly packaging shouldn’t cost the world and should be available when you need it most. Every packaging product we supply is completely recyclable and uses eco-friendly materials that are also biodegradable, reusable and carbon neutral.
Everything, including our mailing bags, range of cardboard boxes, void fill packaging, envelopes and labelling solutions, is completely eco-friendly, from how they’re manufactured to how they’re sourced and delivered.
We have strong partnerships with manufacturers and suppliers that also prioritise sustainable goals. Our 2025 impact report alone highlights many of the responsible and sustainable practices and events we’ve taken part in, from partnering with Action Challenge to support animal conservation, fundraising for the WWF and Salford Food Bank to optimising our Environmental Policy to reduce waste, resource consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. We regularly monitor and record data on things like waste production to find new ways to improve sustainability.
In September 2025, SR Mailing became a B Corp certified company, scoring an amazing 95.4. This certification has marked our commitment and proactive approach to sustainability.
SR Mailing is a business that meets a high standard of both social and environmental performance, accountability and transparency. For our customers, this means they can rest assured that we are incorporating environmental sustainability plans into all of our internal and external processes.
More and more businesses across the UK are always looking for more ways to become more sustainable. Our team can help your business attain these goals with our eco-friendly packaging products.
Many often think that the drawback of eco-friendly packaging is that costs will be much higher due to not having the same mass production scale as traditional materials. We understood these concerns and decided to do something different by providing affordable, reliable and durable packaging made from recycled materials that are sourced responsibly and minimise harmful waste.
It’s not just the initial upfront prices either; our sustainable packaging provides long-term cost savings thanks to lightweight products and their recyclable materials, further helping you save on shipping and waste management. We also want to help businesses grow and support them in any way we can, including offering guidance on choosing the best green packaging and ways to improve existing policies.
We have acquired several environmental certifications and don’t plan on stopping there. We’re always looking for ways to improve on sustainability and look for innovative developments in product design, packaging research and community initiatives.
Sustainability doesn’t have a finish line and instead is an ongoing journey full of exciting challenges to overcome for the betterment of society and the planet. In our 10 years of service so far, we’ve achieved so much and now look to the future to continue on the path of sustainable packaging and business practices.
All packaging products from SR Mailing are made from recycled, recyclable and compostable materials, making them some of the most eco-friendly products around.
SR Mailing reduces its carbon footprint in several ways. We annually offset 100% of our Scope 1 and 2 emissions, as well as 20% of our Scope 3 emissions, through the accredited Climate Partner scheme.
This has resulted in a current carbon intensity for Scopes 1, 2 and 3 (including offsets) of 0 tonnes CO2/£million revenue.
We reduce the need for virgin materials as our packaging materials are majority sourced (>90%) from recycled material, and 100% of our packaging materials are recyclable, helping us to reduce vast amounts of waste. Combine this with non-toxic materials, and pollution is also drastically reduced.
They don’t cost more at SR Mailing. We make sustainable mailing and packaging affordable for all our customers and have been one of our main goals from the very inception of the business.
As well as developing affordable prices per unit, you can order in bulk to receive up to 55% off your order. SR Mailing provide sustainable packaging products that don’t break your bank.
Our annual Impact Reports, reviewed by B Lab for added assurance, aim to provide stakeholders with insights into our progress against our publicly set targets.
SR Mailing is proud to announce that we have officially become B Corp certified, a mark of excellence in social and environmental responsibility.
SR Mailing Ltd has once again been certified under the Global Recycled Standard (GRS) for the fourth consecutive year.
