Sustainable Practices at Flowers Southfields
Our Commitment to a Greener Southfields
At Flowers Southfields, sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. As a proud Southfields florist, we understand the importance of protecting our local environment while delivering stunning, fresh flowers. The vibrant community of Southfields expects eco-friendly and responsible choices, and we strive to meet—and exceed—these expectations every day. Whether delivering to homes or local businesses, we always aim to make our flower deliveries as sustainable as possible.
Eco-Friendly Flower Sourcing
We believe that beautiful arrangements begin with responsible choices. That is why we use locally sourced flowers whenever possible. By working with British growers and selecting greenhouses close to Southfields, we reduce transport emissions and support a thriving UK floriculture industry. When selecting imported varieties for specialty bouquets, we prioritise Fairtrade flowers that guarantee ethical farming practices, fair wages, and community reinvestment. Our customers find comfort knowing their bouquets reflect not only elegance but also ethical and sustainable values.
Environmentally Conscious Packaging
The impact of packaging cannot be overlooked in any eco-friendly flower initiative. At Flowers Southfields, all our arrangements are wrapped in recyclable paper and biodegradable materials. We avoid single-use plastics, opting instead for natural wrapping and reusable gift boxes. Our packaging is carefully selected to protect each arrangement during transit while leaving the smallest possible impact on the environment. If requested, we can even create arrangements without any wrapping, reducing waste further and letting the natural beauty of our blooms stand out.
Low-Carbon Delivery Vans
Sustainable flower delivery in Southfields means considering every step of the process, right down to transportation. Our dedicated fleet features low-emission and hybrid vehicles, ensuring each delivery is made with minimal carbon output. By optimising our routes and scheduling, we are able to reduce unnecessary mileage and emissions. This means your eco-friendly flowers arrive fresh, fast, and with the smallest carbon footprint possible, benefiting the air quality and overall well-being of the Southfields community.
Fairtrade Flowers: Ethical and Sustainable
When international blooms are needed to complement our range, we rely on Fairtrade-certified suppliers. Fairtrade flowers ensure ethical treatment for farm workers, promote sustainable agriculture practices, and offer vital support to communities around the world. By choosing Fairtrade options, Flowers Southfields brings global responsibility into local bouquets. We believe customers should never have to compromise beauty for ethics and sustainability.
Sustainability Matters to Our Customers
Southfields residents and businesses consistently show strong support for sustainable initiatives. We value the trust our customers place in us to deliver not just beautiful flowers, but also responsible and ethical service. Each order is a reflection of the shared priorities of our team and the Southfields community: prioritising long-term planetary health and the well-being of our neighbours. That is why we continue to invest in making our processes more environmentally friendly year after year.
