At Flowers Northwood, we believe that beautiful flowers should not come at the expense of the planet. Our mission is to provide exquisite, fresh floral arrangements to our Northwood community while minimizing our environmental footprint at every step. Sustainability shapes the way we source, prepare, package, and deliver our blooms—so you can send and receive flowers with confidence, knowing they have been ethically and responsibly handled.
Delivering flowers across Northwood means more than just timely arrivals and striking bouquets. It means actively making choices that protect the environment. Our eco-friendly flower delivery service is designed to reduce waste, limit emissions, and promote positive change within the floral industry. We continuously review our processes to ensure they align with the growing demand for green solutions among Northwood’s residents and local businesses.
Traditional floral packaging too often involves single-use plastics and non-biodegradable materials. At Flowers Northwood, we are committed to using only sustainable packaging for our arrangements. Our florists carefully wrap every bouquet in recycled craft paper, natural jute twine, and compostable cellophane made from plant-based materials. This not only preserves the freshness and beauty of your flowers, but also ensures that any waste generated can be easily recycled or composted, reducing our environmental impact one bouquet at a time.
Choosing locally grown blooms is one of the most effective ways to reduce our carbon footprint and support Northwood’s vibrant community of growers. Wherever possible, we partner with nearby flower farms and producers to bring you seasonally fresh, high-quality arrangements. Local sourcing shortens transport distances, keeps flowers fresher for longer, and keeps our carbon emissions to a minimum. By supporting local growers, we bolster the Northwood floral economy and ensure the flowers you send or receive are as sustainable as they are beautiful.
For exotic or out-of-season blooms that cannot be locally sourced, Flowers Northwood is committed to offering Fairtrade certified flowers. Fairtrade standards guarantee that growers in developing countries receive fair wages, safe working conditions, and support for sustainable farming practices. When you choose our Fairtrade options, you’re helping to promote better livelihoods for workers worldwide while supporting environmentally sound cultivation methods.
Transportation is a major source of carbon emissions in the delivery industry. At Flowers Northwood, we’ve invested in a fleet of low-carbon vans to handle our flower deliveries throughout Northwood and the surrounding areas. Our vehicles run on fuel-efficient technology, significantly reducing greenhouse gas emissions while ensuring that your blooms arrive fresh and on time. We are continually exploring cleaner technologies and routing efficiencies to keep our delivery service as green as possible.
We know that sustainability is a top priority for our Northwood clientele—including businesses, families, and organisations. Our community values ethical choices and eco-friendly practices in all aspects of life, and we are proud to play our part in fostering a greener future. Whether you are sending flowers to celebrate, comfort, or express gratitude, you can trust Flowers Northwood to deliver your message with both beauty and responsibility.
