Innovative Formulations and Reduced Carbon Footprint

In our state-of-the-art laboratory, we prioritise the development of eco-friendly product formulations that balance performance with environmental impact. We continuously refine our adhesives and sealants to minimise volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and other emissions. Our research focuses on incorporating raw materials with lower carbon footprints, helping our products contribute to a more sustainable future.

By prioritising environmentally responsible materials, we are able to offer adhesive solutions that not only perform exceptionally well but also support our customers’ sustainability goals.

Eco-Friendly Packaging Solutions

Packaging is a key area where sustainability can make a measurable difference. At Cartell UK Ltd, we continually assess and improve our packaging to reduce waste and maximise recyclability. Whenever possible, we use recyclable or biodegradable materials, and our packaging designs are optimised for efficiency, reducing the overall carbon footprint of our products. These sustainable packaging choices empower our customers to make greener decisions with every purchase, reinforcing our collective responsibility toward environmental stewardship.

Responsible Waste Management and Recycling

We believe in recycling as much waste as possible, with practices in place to maximise our waste reduction efforts. All cardboard, used in our operations is consciously recycled, and we have set up mixed recycling bins around the premises to ensure that recyclable materials are consistently managed responsibly. By actively minimising waste in every way we can, we contribute to a cleaner, more sustainable environment.

Powered by 100% Green Energy

To further reduce our environmental footprint, we are committed to using 100% green energy across our operations. By sourcing renewable energy, we not only minimise emissions but also support a more sustainable energy grid. This commitment to green energy reflects our belief in responsible business practices that benefit both our industry and the planet. We also have Electric Car chargers installed and are free to use for our staff & visitors
