At Flowers Orpington, sustainability isn’t just a trend – it’s at the core of our business values. As proud members of the Orpington community, we know how much our customers and local businesses value sustainability and environmental responsibility. That’s why we’re deeply committed to offering eco-friendly flowers Orpington customers can trust, along with flower delivery options that make every step of your experience as green as possible.
Traditional flower packaging can contribute significantly to landfill waste, but at Flowers Orpington, we have taken innovative steps to minimise our environmental footprint. Our bouquets are lovingly wrapped using recyclable, biodegradable, or compostable materials, ensuring a beautiful presentation without plastic excess. All packaging, from wrapping paper to ribbon and even our delivery boxes, is either re-usable or made from sustainable sources. Choosing our eco-friendly flowers means gifting beauty without waste, perfect for those who value sustainability with every petal.
Sourcing flowers locally is not only a great way to support Orpington’s growers and small businesses, but it also dramatically reduces the carbon cost of transport. By working closely with trusted local farms and suppliers, we ensure our flowers are fresher, last longer, and travel only a short distance to your door. Less transport means fewer emissions, contributing to cleaner air and a healthier Orpington. Our bridal bouquets, arrangements, and everyday flower gifts are a reflection of the vibrant, seasonal variety our local producers have to offer.
At Flowers Orpington, we believe that sustainability extends beyond environmental factors; it is equally about social responsibility. When we need to source blooms from further afield, we prioritise Fairtrade-certified flowers. This ensures fair working conditions and fair pay for growers, often in developing communities. Opting for Fairtrade flowers guarantees the right balance between quality and ethics, allowing you to enjoy exquisite arrangements that have a positive impact on people as well as the planet.
It’s not just what we deliver, but how we deliver that matters. Flowers Orpington is proud to operate a fleet of low-carbon delivery vans, specifically chosen to minimise emissions while ensuring timely, careful delivery of your flowers. Our investments in greener transport mean every bouquet and arrangement is brought to you with a lighter environmental footprint, upholding your values and ours for a cleaner, greener Orpington.
We are delighted to see how many Orpington customers and local businesses are interested in supporting eco-friendly flowers and sustainable flower delivery options. Your support inspires us to keep innovating and striving for even greener solutions in everything we do. Together, we’re not just sharing the joy of flowers – we’re nurturing a brighter, more sustainable future for Orpington and beyond.
Every step we take, from eco packaging to local and Fairtrade sourcing, to our thoughtful delivery methods, is designed to ensure your flowers make a positive impact. Join us in making Orpington bloom sustainably – for today, tomorrow, and generations to come.
