Responsible e-commerce from packaging to deliveries
We change the world to a little better place, one product at a time - together with our customers and partners. We in Ruohonjuuri Oy also believe in fair trade, which is done respecting the environment and people.
You can order products from our webshop in good spirits, every product in Ruohonjuuri Oy is a better choice for the people and the environment. We know the background of all our products and we can help our customers by serving actively.
We do a close collaboration with the manufacturers of our products and importing small businesses. We invest in far-reaching cooperation. Ruohonjuuri Oy’s strong values are also seen in the choices of partners in packaging and logistics.
In our webshop, we have strived to find as eco-friendly packaging materials as possible. Geami-paper which is used in packaging is FSC-certified and Fillpak-paper is recycled Kraft-paper. The recycling percentage of our cardboard boxes is 40-70%. The used material for packaging is 100% recycled, 100% biodegradable, and are based on 100% renewable materials. All the materials are produced in the EU.
We strive to avoid unnecessary printing, so a receipt or return form of paper will not be sent together with the webshop order. You can easily check the products in the order from the delivery confirmation sent by e-mail, and a link in pdf format can be found on the delivery confirmation link, which can be printed if necessary.
There is a suitable option for everyone in the delivery methods of e-commerce. Posti, DHL delivers packages to the EU. Budbee delivers packages to Finland, Denmark, the Netherlands, and Sweden, as well as home delivery and Budbee Box vending machines. Orders can be placed in the EU.
CO2 emissions from transport and deliveries have been compensated.
Both Posti and Budbee compensate for the CO2 emissions from their transports, so the transports are carbon neutral. Ruohonjuuri own emissions are 100% overcompensated.
Ruohonjuuri Oy´s own emissions are overcompensated 100% by planting trees. We are overcompensating our emissions 100% - not only this year but also for about ten years ahead. The amount of our CO2 compensation was 650,364 kg.
