At Claire’s Amazeballs, caring about what goes into our products also means caring about the impact we have on the world around us.

As a small, independent food business, we know that every choice we make — from the ingredients we buy and the packaging we use to how we produce and deliver our energy balls — has an environmental impact.

We don’t claim to have all the answers. Instead, our approach is to make thoughtful, practical choices, reduce unnecessary waste and continually look for ways to improve as our business grows.

Thoughtful ingredients & responsible sourcing

Our energy balls are 100% plant-based and made in small batches using carefully selected ingredients.

We use organic ingredients wherever possible and work with suppliers whose standards align with our approach to quality and responsible sourcing.

Where practical, we also choose local suppliers and service providers, helping us build strong supplier relationships while reducing unnecessary transport.

We regularly review our ingredients and suppliers as the business develops, balancing quality, availability, affordability and environmental considerations.

Reducing food & production waste

Because we make our products in small batches, we can carefully manage production and minimise unnecessary food waste.

Food waste and organic matter generated during production, including date stones, are separated for composting through the appropriate local waste collection.

Ingredient packaging and other recyclable materials are separated and recycled through the appropriate waste streams wherever facilities allow.

We continually look for practical ways to reduce the amount of material and resources we use throughout production.

Packaging with purpose

Packaging has an important job: it needs to protect our products, maintain their quality and freshness, and help prevent food waste.

At the same time, we want to minimise its environmental impact.

Our main product boxes are made from FSC-certified cardboard and are recyclable. Where appropriate, we also reuse suitable packaging, including returned boxes from local customers.

We aim to:

• minimise unnecessary packaging;
• prioritise recyclable materials where suitable;
• use only the protective packaging necessary to maintain product quality and food safety;
• reuse materials where it is safe and practical to do so; and
• continually review better packaging options as they become commercially and operationally viable.

We recognise that there is rarely a perfect packaging solution. Our approach is therefore based on practical environmental improvements rather than making claims that a particular material is automatically “sustainable”.

Conscious delivery & distribution

We aim to make our deliveries and distribution as efficient as reasonably possible.

Where practical, we consolidate orders and journeys, pack efficiently and work with delivery and supply partners that share our commitment to reducing unnecessary environmental impact.

As Claire’s Amazeballs grows, we will continue looking at ways to improve the efficiency of our distribution while maintaining the freshness and quality of our products.

Our environmental commitment

Sustainability is an ongoing process rather than a finished project.

As a small business, we focus on the areas where we can make a meaningful and practical difference. Our commitments are to:

• reduce food and production waste wherever reasonably possible;
• minimise unnecessary packaging;
• recycle and reuse materials where appropriate;
• consider environmental factors when choosing ingredients, packaging, suppliers and service providers;
• improve the efficiency of our production and distribution;
• consider new lower-impact materials and processes as they become practical for our business; and
• regularly review our environmental practices as Claire’s Amazeballs grows.

We will continue to learn, improve and be transparent about both the progress we make and the areas where there is more work to do.

Small changes add up, and we believe growing our business responsibly is just as important as creating food that tastes amazing.
