Eco Policy
Eco Policy
All our materials have been carefully selected for our garden pod assembly based on their ecological and high-grade qualities.
To guarantee our materials are sustainable, we have strict guidelines to uphold our high eco standards.
Our first consideration is if the materials can be sourced locally to reduce pollution while supporting local businesses. The second point is assessing if the materials can be recycled to prevent lasting environmental damage. At the core of Basebox’s ethos is preservation, so we aim to use “second life” materials where possible and not compromise on quality.

Solar Powered
Our facility based in Buckinghamshire is run by solar power. This includes our Showrooms, Offices and Factories, all using energy from one of the UK’s largest solar panel farms.
The power generated contributes to around 45% of the energy we use, significantly taking care of a large percentage of our energy usage as a business.
Landfill
As a part of our eco policy, we ensure that no waste ends up in landfills. Our careful and considerate recycling process means we produce zero waste.
Any materials or cut-offs that cannot be recycled at our facility are taken to the local recycling centre for incineration. This process generates power for local communities in the area, ensuring absolutely nothing goes to waste.
TIMBER
To preserve precious natural resources, we source timbre from FSC-certified suppliers, planting 5 trees for every 1 used for construction.
The superior wooden cladding combined with structural timber used plays a significant role in the design and construction of our garden buildings.
CARBON NEUTRAL
As a part of our ongoing efforts to reduce our impact on the planet, our company’s Showrooms, Offices, and Production Facility have achieved complete carbon neutrality! We can operate to the highest standard without any adverse impact on the environment.
Our commitment to reducing our carbon footprint is a continuous goal by investing in carbon-positive projects as a business.
