Sustainability
AMPERNA® is fully committed to lessening the environmental impact on our planet. We take this commitment seriously and are always looking for ways that we can make a positive difference. We believe that it is our responsibility to do all that we can to ethically provide our products to you, by ensuring that all stages of the supply chain are performed in a sustainable manner. Below are some of the ways we are doing this.
AMPERNA® is proudly certified plastic negative. This means that for every kilogram of plastic we use, we remove two kilograms of plastic from the environment.
PLASTIC NEGATIVE
RECYCLABLE PACKAGING
Our PET bottles are fully recyclable, as well as the gift boxes that our bundles come in. When you have finished using your products, please rinse out the bottles and place in your plastics recycling bin. If you have received a bundle and your products arrived in a gift box, please ensure you place this in the paper recycling bin.
We also offer the choice of whether you'd like to receive your bundle in a gift box or in our biodegradable bubble wrap during your checkout.
All our bottles are made from 100% recycled plastic, ethically sourced for its suitability to protect our products as well as the environment. By using 100% recycled plastic we are helping to lower greenhouse gas emissions as well as keeping plastic out of landfills.

COMPOSTABLE SHIPPING BAGS
AMPERNA® ships all of our orders in fully home compostable shipping bags that are made from plant-based materials and not plastic. To protect the bottles during shipping, we wrap them in biodegradable bubble wrap.
AMPERNA® uses electricity that has 100% of the carbon emissions generated offset so we are completely carbon neutral. This carbon neutral energy utilises carbon offsets from accredited climate action projects in Australia and around the world to help reduce or remove greenhouse gas emissions in the atmosphere. The projects also provide economic, social, and environmental benefits to the communities they are run in.

PRINTING AND PAPER
We only use fully recycled paper for all of our internal printing and limit our printing to only essential documents. Any toner cartridges that are used in the office are also recycled with accredited partners to ensure all the componentry is broken down and recycled correctly.
All ingredients used in AMPERNA® products are of the highest quality and sourced from Australian and European suppliers who also share our sustainability vision. During the manufacturing process, recycling of any wastewater is also performed to help preserve this precious resource.
