🌿 Sustainability at SquidgeMakes

Small Business. Small Footprint. Big Heart.

At SquidgeMakes, sustainability isn’t a trend - it’s a responsibility. As a tiny family‑run business, every choice we make matters. From the materials we use to the way we package your orders, we’re committed to keeping our environmental footprint as small as possible while still delivering magical, meaningful products.

🌱 Why Sustainability Matters to Us

Running a small business means I get to shape it around my values - creativity, family, and care for the world my children are growing up in. Choosing eco‑friendly materials and mindful production isn’t just good practice… it’s personal.

Shopping small and local genuinely makes a difference. Your support allows me to create a business that fits around family life - to be present with my kids, to work flexibly, and to avoid sending them to nursery or school for every hour available. So when you choose SquidgeMakes, you’re not just choosing a product… you’re choosing a kinder way of doing business. And for that, I want to say a huge, heartfelt thank you.

♻️ Our Eco‑Friendly Materials

Every card we make is created with sustainability in mind:

• FSC‑certified card & paper Ethically sourced from responsibly managed forests.

• Over 75% recycled materials Giving new life to existing resources and reducing waste.

• Eco‑friendly inks Beautiful colours with a lighter environmental impact.

• UK‑made card & paper Keeping our supply chain local to reduce carbon footprint and support British manufacturers.

📦 Thoughtful Packaging

We believe packaging shouldn’t cost the earth - literally.

• We reuse packaging from our suppliers wherever possible, giving materials a second life instead of sending them to the bin.

• Your order is packed with care using recyclable or reusable materials, keeping waste to a minimum.

It might not look “factory perfect,” but it’s kinder to the planet — and that matters more.

💌 Designed With Purpose

Every SquidgeMakes card is created to be kept, cherished, and remembered - not thrown away. From magical scratch‑off reveals to personalised keepsakes, our aim is to make moments that last, not waste that lingers.
