At Kelly & Co’s® UK, we believe that pets deserve the very best—and so does the planet. As a company rooted in natural nutrition, we are committed to operating our business in a way that is ethical, sustainable, and environmentally responsible. This Environmental Statement outlines our approach to reducing environmental impact in line with UK environmental regulations, community expectations, and our own values.
1. Sustainable Sourcing
We prioritise sourcing high-quality, responsibly raised ingredients from farms and fisheries that uphold animal welfare and environmental protection. We work with suppliers who share our commitment to traceability, ethical farming, and sustainable harvesting methods.
2. Eco-Friendly Packaging
We are committed to reducing packaging waste by:
- Using recyclable, compostable, or reusable materials where possible
- Working with packaging partners that follow WRAP guidelines and UK recycling standards
- Continuously reviewing and improving the sustainability of our packaging options
3. Responsible Manufacturing
Our production partners are selected not only for their food safety and quality capabilities but also for their environmental practices. These include:
- Minimising water and energy usage
- Reducing food and material waste
- Adhering to relevant environmental management systems (e.g., ISO 14001)
4. Logistics & Carbon Footprint
To reduce our emissions, we:
- Optimise freight and logistics routes to minimise transportation impact
- Work with local and regional partners to reduce long-distance haulage
- Explore carbon offsetting opportunities where appropriate
