Sustainability
At The Kingswood Company, we foster a culture built on hard work, commitment, and citizenship. That is why we are committed not only to producing a superior product but also to giving back to our community and our customers. Our employees are involved in a number of organizations that make a meaningful impact on our local community. In addition, we provide financial support to organizations like the Women’s Jewelry Association and Diamonds do Good.
We are also committed to reducing our environmental impact, which affects all communities worldwide. But we realize that there is more to sustainability than buzzwords. Following is a summary of where we are focusing our efforts and making strides to do even more.
Material Sourcing
We seek out local and regional suppliers for heavy materials such as corrugate and chemicals. Buying raw materials from local suppliers results in fewer road miles traveled for the materials to get to our production facility in Ohio. When we do buy from national sources, we work to ensure that inbound shipments are consolidated and utilize back-haul shipping lanes to conserve fuel usage.
We have also worked with our packaging and paper vendors to ensure we can offer more sustainable paper options to our own customers to meet their sustainability goals, including recycled and FSC papers.
Packaging
When it comes to packaging, we believe that less is more. In 2006, before many companies were even focused on green initiatives, The Kingswood Company introduced a new jar design that uses significantly less plastic. This change alone saves over 25,000 pounds of plastic each year and results in less fuel used to transport both raw materials and our final product. Today, we have transitioned all of our jars to more recyclable plastics to make it easier for your customers to recycle when they have thoroughly used their jewelry cleaner.
In addition to reducing the amount of plastic we use, we are also committed to utilizing as much recycled material as possible in our jars, caps, baskets and brushes. We also source our corrugate from suppliers that use recycled waste in their manufacturing process. And we remain hopeful that our customers also reuse and recycle the boxes and plastics that they receive from us!
Corporate Initiatives
In our office, The Kingswood Company practices a variety of energy-saving strategies in our corporate and production facility, including ensuring that lights, computers, and heating and cooling systems are off when the office is not in use.
