Ongoing Commitment
to Sustainability

At Porter and Woodman Gifts, sustainability isn’t a seasonal trend - it’s embedded in everything we do. We specialise in eco-friendly corporate hampers that not only delight employees but also support a more sustainable future.

From our reusable packaging to our locally sourced products, we strive to minimise our environmental footprint while maximising our positive impact on communities and the planet.

Supporting Local Producers

We’re passionate about sourcing locally. Many of our artisan treats and handcrafted items come from small-scale UK producers, helping to reduce carbon emissions while supporting local jobs and preserving traditional craftsmanship.

Reusable Packaging

Our hampers are designed to be cherished long after Christmas. We offer beautiful, reusable packaging options such as:

Handcrafted wooden crates (produced in-house)
Elegant wicker baskets
Practical ‘Bag for Life’ options

These eco-conscious solutions reduce single-use waste and provide ongoing utility in homes and offices alike.

Eco-Conscious Materials

Every element of our packaging is chosen with care:

100% recycled crumpled paper for protective fill.

Willow, bamboo, and FSC-certified timber from renewable sources.

Minimal plastic usage, with a strong push toward compostable or recyclable alternatives.

Continuous Progress

Our commitment to sustainability is an ongoing journey of improvement. We continuously explore new avenues to reduce our ecological footprint and contribute positively to a sustainable future.

Biomass Energy & Waste Reduction

Sustainability begins at our base of operations in the West Midlands, where we produce our wooden packaging.

Key initiatives include:

FSC-compliant timber sourcing to protect global forests
Partnerships with Scandinavian mills that focus on reforestation and environmental compliance
An in-house biomass wood burner converting wood waste to energy—eliminating gas use in two warehouses and drastically cutting landfill waste
