Supporting sustainable brands today for a better tomorrow.
Planet
Our climate action and impact on the environment.
We believe in calling for a climate action for a just transition now. We are dedicated to bringing about a greener, fairer and more equitable future and do this in a number of ways such as speaking out on issues we care about as well as supporting and raising awareness about climate positive businesses who are choosing to reject unsustainable, profit driven business models in order to fight climate change.
Climate action is central to our ethos. Check out some of the initiatives we endorse like the UK’s Climate and Ecology Bill, Stop Ecocide International and the Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty among others and help to spread the word.
We’re certified B-Corp pending! Certified B Corporations, or B Corps, are companies verified by B Lab to meet high standards of social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability.
In addition to our climate action our platform is be powered by Krystal a UK based website hosting provider that uses 100% renewable electricity from the sun, wind and sea. This means no shady carbon offsetting, just a direct relationship between their UK datacentre and Ecotricity to power the facility with energy generated by 100% renewable sources.
We aim to help promote awareness of practices that consumer brands have adopted to encourage ethical and environmental sustainability. We do this by providing our customers with a curated selection of UK’s top eco-friendly brands that have a ranger of accreditations and certifications from reputable organisations.
People
Our commitment to positively impacting society.
In order to fight climate change, we require systems change. We can only achieve by ensuring that people are put at the very centre of the green and just transition. For this reason, we only work with brands who are committed to looking after their staff properly, treating them with respect, dignity and free from discrimination. We expect our brands to provide all staff with safe working conditions and hours of work and fair and equal pay in line with national laws. We expect all the companies listed on Ecoswap to maintain the highest standards of integrity and respect for human rights at all times. Any brand found to be in breach of these standards will be investigated and removed from the platform.
Internally, we foster a diverse, inclusive workplace culture where every team member is valued, respected, and empowered to contribute their best work. By championing fairness, equity, and inclusivity, we create an environment where everyone can thrive and drive our mission forward.
Our commitment to people and social governance is not just a corporate value—it’s a fundamental part of who we are. By prioritizing people alongside profits, we build a stronger, more resilient business positioned for long-term success. At Ecoswap, sustainability means creating a better future for all, where people and the planet thrive together.
Transparency
Why transparency is important to us.
Transparency in ESG and sustainability reporting is essential for building trust, enhancing investor confidence, engaging stakeholders, driving performance improvement, and fostering innovation and collaboration.
At Ecoswap, transparency is not just a value; it’s a fundamental principle guiding our every action. We believe that transparency is essential for building trust with our customers, brand partners, and stakeholders.
In an industry rife with greenwashing and misleading claims, we understand the importance of being open and honest about our practices, partnerships, and impact. That’s why we strive to provide clear and accurate information about the sustainability credentials of the brands featured on our platform.
Transparency extends beyond our brand partnerships to every aspect of our operations. From our commitment to using 100% renewable energy to power our platform to our efforts to mitigate Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions, we believe in being upfront about our environmental footprint.
Ultimately, transparency is not just about earning trust; it’s about fostering accountability and driving positive change. By being transparent about our practices and commitments, we hope to inspire others to join us in our mission to create a more sustainable future for generations to come.
