First Impressions Last Longer is the world’s first Carbon neutral supplier of office and lifestyle products. We put the environment at the core of our business and everything we supply has the least impact on our planet possible. If it doesn’t, we won’t stock it so you can be sure that what you are buying is the greenest option available.
We don't believe in shipping product in from far afield unnecessarily. We source and manufacture the products we sell through a strict but simple ethos. Where possible our products are made from 100% UK Post Consumer Waste manufactured in the UK and where not we find the most sustainable source using the most eco-friendly materials with the least distribution impact. Our criteria for supplying our customers are very strict to ensure that we are recycling as much UK waste as possible. In the small proportion of cases where this is not possible we supply products having undertaken substantial evaluations to ensure they provide significant environmental savings.
We think that caring for the environment starts with taking responsibility for what we consume and what we supply you. Our customers vary from multi-nationals to home users from charities to small businesses from eco-warriors to office workers. One thing we all share is our passion to make a difference.
Whether you choose a First Impressions toner cartridge that removes three and half litres of oil from landfill or washing up liquid that doesn't contain dioxins, or one of our Sava Plugs, we have chosen to offer it because it is special; It is special because it provides best value, best quality, and best environmental impact.
1% of all our sales are given to local and international charities to ensure that the research and activist base the environmental movement needs, remain strong and healthy.
What you’ll find unique about us is that we will give you an accurate and well thought out rationale for why we supply particular products, supported by independent statistical analysis from respected organisations, like the World Resource Institute and Environmental Defence. We also publicly share our own environmental footprint so you can see how we measure up.
