environmental responsibility
At the absolute forefront of our values as a company is conservation and sustainability. We love our earth and everything it provides.
We recognize that as a company facilitating commerce, we have an obligation to conduct our business and services as environmentally friendly as possible. We have a number of practices that reflect this mindset.
I. MERCHANDISE
We perfectly embody the second R in the reduce, reuse, recycle motto. Our merchandise is preowned.
II. PACKAGING
Packaging accounts for tons of waste in commerce. This includes brown boxes, bubble wrap, tissue paper, paper, packing peanuts, etc. Normally, these types of packaging materials are made of virgin material and are often discarded after one use.
At ÉPROUVÉE, the majority of our packaging materials are made of recycled material, reused material, or recyclable.
