'Bee Green' Return & Reuse Scheme

Yay!  It has arrived - our 'Bee Green' Return and Reuse Scheme.

What is the scheme?

This is a scheme designed to create an environmentally friendly way to handle our product packaging.

In essence, it allows ONLY used 50ml and 100ml glass containers and packaging to be returned so that they can be reconditioned and put back into use, thereby re-using your containers.   We cannot currently re-use honey jars, lids or bottles so please recycle these are usual.

How does it work?

Step 1

Collect 5+ used 50ml and 100ml containers, saving your last delivery box and packaging

Step 2

Clean jars then remove labels from containers and soak in hot soapy water to remove any residue

Step 3

Wrap each container securely in protective packaging to prevent breakages then pack into box and pop in a note confirming your name, address or email so we can award your loyalty points.

Step 4

Take to the post office and send to us at Honey Bee Beautiful, Trestevan Farm, Llangybi, Usk NP15 1NN.

How is it good for the environment?

Reusing containers is one of the most effective and inexpensive ways to reduce the environmental impact of packaging. Refilling and reusing glass and metal containers directly reduces the demand for manufacturing. Accordingly, lowering demand for single-use containers reduces waste and energy consumption. Significant reductions in waste and energy consumption can be achieved with just 7–8 reuses of a single container.

How is it good for you?

To say a massive thank you for helping us, helping the environment and in effect helping the bees, we will reward you with 100 loyalty points for every box you return to us - just make sure to include your name and email or address with your returns so we know who you are
