Our Sustainability Journey

At An Organised Life we want to do everything we can to be a part of a positive future. We are putting a lot of energy and thought into our sustainability journey and have a 5 year plan in place to move forward as a brand, continuing to make changes within the business internally and in our supply & production chain to be more environmentally sustainable. We are enjoying learning about ways we can improve and would love to share with you where we are at in our journey…
Our Products
We design our products to be used over a long period of time & encourage our community to hold onto their notebooks & diaries as keepsakes. Every product is designed with the core value of quality over quantity and is created with the purpose to give the An Organised Life community a tool to bring structure and organisation to their lives.
All our products are made with soy ink & FSC Certified acid free paper.
Our covers are either paper, vegan leather, cotton or buckram. Each fabrication is a conscious choice on our behalf and the quality is still amazing and very durable.
We are also having fun trailing different sustainable paper options for future products.
As much as we love putting pen to paper we know there are other ways to do things too which is why we are constantly expanding our range of downloadables to inspire, motivate and organise. We are big believers that there's room for both digital & physical organisation tools & products.
Our Packaging
Your products will arrive in one of our signature AOL black boxes or envelopes. Some products also come in biodegrade shrink wrap for protection. To protect it on it's journey you can also expect your online order to arrive in either a black Home Compostable courier satchel from the incredible Better Packaging company or a black cardboard box that is recyclable. Our beautiful custom cardboard boxes can be utilised for receipts, notes or to house your diary in at the end of its life cycle too.
Our Head Office
At the AOL HQ we are recycling all soft plastics, paper & cardboard, ink cartridges & our Nespresso capsules and are avoiding any single use products - we all love our reusable coffee cups! We are lucky to have beautiful natural light which allows us to limit the use of lights and we switch off all unessential powerpoints before leaving the office. We also offset any flights we need to take for business purposes. These are little things that we hope will make an impact long term.
We are constantly being inspired by our community and are so grateful to have you on this journey with us.
