XMiles: Sustainability & Success

In today’s ever evolving world, sustainability is a non-negotiable for business success and is paving the way to a brighter future for many generations to come. Here at XMiles, we have been working hard internally and with the brands we interact with to improve sustainability.

1% For the Planet.

Some of the brands that we stock are part of the 1% for the planet scheme, which is an international organization whose members contribute at least one percent of their annual revenue to environmental causes to protect the environment.

These brands are Chia Charge, GOODR, GU Energy, Muir Energy, Pelotan, Rawvelo, Trail Butter. This means any products that you buy from these companies contributes towards environmental causes and restoration projects. To date, 1% for the Planet has certified over $530 million in donations and this number is expected to grow exponentially as the network grows each year—proving the power of collective action. 

Similarly, three of our brands are B Corporation Certified (Ciele Athletics, Näak and Nuun), meaning they have been verified by B Lab to meet high standards of social and environmental performance, transparency and accountability.  

Our Couriers: 

We work closely with both Royal Mail and DPD to deliver your orders straight to your door. Both couriers have great initiatives to improve their sustainability and help the environment.  

Royal Mail’s Net Zero Delivery Scheme is committed to achieving net zero emissions and power the whole fleet using alternative fuels by 2040, as well as having a stronger focus on responsible consumption and increasing recycling.  

DPD’s Green Initiative also has aims to achieve net zero emissions by increasing the number of deliveries that are all-electric, as well as maintaining their 100% score for waste avoiding landfills by filtering through processes such as re-using and recycling waste. 

What We Do: 

Here at XMiles, we are also taking measures towards being more sustainable. From boxes to packaging, we have utilised a range of experience to guide ourselves in a more sustainable direction:  

Boxes:

Our boxes are supplied by PackHelp which is an FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) Certified company are 100% recyclable.

FSC Certification means the company contributes towards the sustainable management of forests and the support of smallholders and indigenous people in forest regions. In addition, PackHelp are part of the One Tree Planted Scheme which has helped plant over 19,480 trees to date.  

Packing Materials:

Our other packaging materials are sourced from RAJA who are FSC Certified, these materials are 100% fully recyclable.

RAJA also has many objectives towards limiting CO2 emissions as well as many action programmes such as the RAJA-Danièle Marcovici Foundation supports 12 projects for Women & the Environment which is funded through a portion of their sales revenue.
